We were both right in some areas and have taught each other something! Shame we can't use this method to keep world peace!

I did actually look into it after your comment. It seems most of the studies that show a loss of Omega 3 are actually looking at deep fried fish. Which makes sense as obviously with deep frying the omega3 will leach out of the fish - and the fish will take up the less healthy frying oil. But who really deep fries oily fish - other than maybe white bait?

I think, disregarding the calories in the oils used and the saturates in the butter, a meal of shallow fried herring and bread and butter is not that unhealthy a meal. As a small part of a balanced diet it's actually pretty nutritious. It's really lovely as well :smiley:

Deep frying I meant! Spell checker!

Maybe deep fruit does then!

Indeed we did, and we did!

The butter was on the bread not on the fish! Did you mean they probably made a herring sandwich ?

Very tasty and good price. Heat added.

Herring. Lovely.

Maybe they wanted to enjoy it?

Zzzz zz zz

Handy. I've got to chop down the mightiest tree in my local forest.

When you fry fish you destroy the omega 3. Better to steam it.

We had some last night pan fried and served with crusty white bread and butter - nom nom nom!
