We at Stellagama Publishing are, as you may know, hard at work on a gamers' cookbook called Cauldrons & Casseroles. As a preview for that book, we present you with one recipe from the book: Aboleth Bites!

Aboleth bites (6 servings)

Kitchen sorcery level: 2


Another delicacy made from your enemy's dead body!

Ingredients:

1 kg/ 2 lb haddock, cod, whitebait, or any other white fish fillet meat
2 cups of breadcrumbs
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp salt
1 tsp smoked paprika
freshly ground black pepper
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup of milk
1 litre/ 2 pints of vegetable oil, for deep frying

Preparation:

  1. Cut the fish fillets into 5*10 cm/ 2*4-inch pieces.
  2. Place the breadcrumbs, spices and salt in a bowl and mix well. In another bowl, mix the eggs and milk. Coat the fish pieces with the egg mixture, then roll in the breadcrumbs.
  3. Place the oil in a deep-frying pan, heat over a medium fire until the oil starts to bubble and fry the fish bites until golden brown. Remove the fish bites to a dish covered in kitchen paper and serve with the following dip.

Onion, honey and mustard dip

Kitchen sorcery level: 2


Ingredients:

1 onion or 4 shallots, finely chopped
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp honey
1 tbsp smooth Dijon mustard
1/2 cup of milk
½ cup beer
1 tbsp plain flour
½ tsp salt

Preparation:

  1. Place the butter in a small saucepan and heat over a medium fire until it melts. Add the onion and fry while stirring until the onion is golden in colour.
  2. Add the flour and mix well. Then, very gradually add the milk while stirring constantly, to prevent lumps. Then, pour in the beer and bring the mixture to a boil.
  3. Add the honey, mustard and salt, lower the heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the dip is thick enough to cover the back of a spoon.
  4. Transfer to a serving dish and serve hot or cold.
