Fast fish recipes, from seafood pasta to grilled lobster

Times13-05-2025
Nothing transports you to a summer holiday spent on the beach quite like the sound of fish sizzling on the barbecue or the smell of a bowl of seafood spaghetti, whether on the coast of Italy or Carbis Bay in Cornwall. Someone who knows this very well is the Cornish chef Emily Scott.
Known for her simple, fresh seafood dishes, she has appeared on TV with Rick Stein and once hosted a dinner for G7 world leaders at her previous restaurant overlooking Watergate Bay. Her third book, Home Shores, is out now and filled with 100 ideas for cooking fish. Hannah Evans

Rescued British hiker billed €14,225 for ignoring rockslide signs in Dolomites

A British hiker has been charged more than €14,000 (£12,000) by the Italian mountain rescue service after ignoring danger warnings in the Dolomites. The man, aged 60, had to be rescued after venturing to the Ferrata Berti, a rocky mountain path at an altitude of 2,500 metres (8,200ft) in the San Vito di Cadore area of the northern Italian peaks where dozens of paths were closed last week because of the high risk of landslides. Nicola Cherubin, the chief of the alpine rescue service in San Vito di Cadore, said the man, who has not been named, set off from the Passo Tre Croci, near Cortina d'Ampezzo in Belluno province, on Thursday morning and made his way to the Ferrata Berti, bypassing barriers and ignoring the closure sign, written in English and Italian, at the start of the path and others urging hikers to turn back. He sounded the alarm at about 3.30pm on Thursday after becoming distressed by falling rocks. 'He said he wasn't aware that the path was closed and didn't see the signs,' Cherubin said, adding that the rescue operation involved the use of two helicopters – because of poor weather conditions – as well as several staff. Cherubin said the man was lucky to be alive, although his venture into the mountains – and Brexit – landed him with a bill of €14,225, of which €11,160 was to cover the cost of the 93-minute helicopter rescue. A few days earlier, two Belgian hikers were rescued in similar conditions but they received a fraction of the bill owing to Belgium being a member of the European Union. Giuseppe Dal Ben, the commissioner of the Ulss 1 health authority in the Dolomites, urged tourists 'to approach the mountains with respect and caution'. 'What happened [with the British hiker] warrants some reflection,' he told the local media. 'Helicopters are essential for time-dependent [rescue] operations in harsh environments. Precisely for this reason, it is important that they are not used as taxis, endangering not only those who are providing the assistance but those who actually need it.'

Brit boy, 15, sneaks onto flight to ITALY after getting separated from parents while flying home to UK after Spain hols

A Brit teenage snuck onto a flight to Italy after getting separated from his parents who were flying back to the UK from Spain. The panicked couple sounded the alarm after losing sight of the 15-year-old at Menorca Airport, ahead of their scheduled Tui flight back to London Stansted. 1 Do you know anything about the teenager who boarded the wrong flight? Email Police checked CCTV cameras and discovered the boy had managed to get past security and board a flight around heading to Milan Malpensa Airport. His mum jumped onto a later flight to Italy and was due to be reunited with her son today. Spanish police confirmed today they had helped locate the youngster after he became separated from his mum and dad. A source familiar with the extraordinary sequence said: 'They were due to catch Tui flight BY5107 back to London Stansted Airport together at 9.25 this morning but became separated. 'The boy's parents ended up reporting him missing and that led to police intervention.' A spokesman for the National Police in Majorca said: 'Officers checked cameras in the departures area and saw the teenager had managed to get onto a flight to Milan. 'The airport had already activated its missing child alert system but it was deactivated after it was confirmed the lad was on his way to Italy.' It was not immediately clear this afternoon how the youngster, who according to local reports may suffer from autism, managed to board EasyJet flight U23762. Despite a rigorous boarding pass check protocol, he managed to get onto the plane which departed at 9.29am on Monday morning without a valid ticket. is your go-to destination for the best celebrity news, real-life stories, jaw-dropping pictures and must-see video.
