AFRIKAANDERPLEIN MARKET COOK-UP

After visiting the local market I had the first opportunity in one month to cook something myself. This was also made possible by staying at the house of some new Dutch friends, whom were not unfortunately present to share the feast - next time!

So, on the menu:

Raw herring, with finely chopped onions, salt and pepper, olive oil and a drizzle of lemon juice. Raw herring is a typical Dutch delicacy, although this being the first time I have de-boned fish my dish certainly would not be up to local standards.

This was sided by tiny baked potatoes, beetroot and onion with lots of olive oil, salt and pepper.

Finished with new-season strawberries, from Spain (still not sure if this is a good or bad thing), with sugar on top.
