I'd forgotten about the good old fish fingers!! I used to just fry up 6 or 7 or 8 ..... and only eat THEM!! LOL .... veges weren't TOO HIGH on my list, unless they were cooked up in the Spag Bog. I only used to buy in lettuce if I was entertaining (years later) & even then, it would go slimy in the fridge afterwards! LOL

I was doing my Home Economics Course at the time - so I made sure I ate as many of the ingredients & products that we cooked during the day so I wasn't so hungry at night!! They didn't know it - but they were subsidising me! One student's Mum took pity on me & took me to their home every weekend at Newport for 2-3 days of proper meals. (I was also able to indulge in my passion for fishing as well, as they were on the water) She became my 'adopted Mum' and is gorgeous even to this day.
I've just remembered another 'easy meal' that would go VERY WELL with the veal eye fillet!! I often do this when we are camping. It is SO yummy - and all in one frypan! I would cut up these veggies (no greens!) into cubes: half a sweet potato, half a potato, a wedge of pumpkin, and 1 onion. Fry them up until browned a little & cooked thru (test with skewer) then add some chopped bacon & mix it thru the veg, cook for a few mins. Keep moving the veg. Move the veg to 1 side & add some oil & cook the steak to your desired 'doneness'. Serve it up! YUMMMMMY! (And the veggies even nicer the next day, even cold!)
