Two of our readers got in touch to ask for a recipe and for help in finding an ingredient in Dublin. We’re throwing it open to you, our other readers, to see what you have up your sleeves.
Fiona wants to know where she can buy tins of chilli in adobe sauce in Dublin. Adobe (or adobo) sauce is a marinade used in Mexican and South American cooking; looking at recipes online there seems to be loads of different variations of it. I’m not sure where Fiona will find this – there’s lots of ethnic food shops in Dublin but I’m not aware of any that specialise in Mexican food. The Taco Taco food stand in the Epicurean Food Hall on Abbey St sells various Mexican food products, although their range is limited. Any other suggestions?
Danny in Los Angeles is homesick for proper Irish chip shop battered cod. Does anyone have a reliable recipe for cod batter? He says the Americans try their best but never get it right.
