What's for Dinner?

I like to experiment using up things I have in my pantry and mixing them with fresh items.

Last night I took some fresh cod fillets cut into 4-5 inch pieces. I added some salt and pepper and some minced herbs, basil and chives. Then I covered each piece of cod with some slices of smoked salmon that needed using up. I wrapped each fillet in 2-3 layers of filo dough that also needed using before it dried out in the fridge. Brushed liberally with olive oil as I rolled each parcel up.

Now the tricky part is we don't have any kind of oven in the kitchen as we are remodeling and the old oven broke (different thread) so I am using a propane smoker outside, kind of an upright box with a burner at the bottom and several shelves. It does get up to 400 degrees F so baking works, it is just a bit tricky.

It came out great and I served it with potato pancakes (again using up left overs) and fresh asparagus.
