Surfing the Menu at the Cockburn Sound WACockburn Sound is 20 minutes south of the Port of Fremantle in Western Australia. It's a natural sweeping bay sheltered by Garden Island which is a nature reserve and naval base. It's a remarkable area where industry and nature co-exist side-by-side. Bender and Stoney are out in a boat trying to catch some huge Schnapper for which Cockburn Sound is famous, when all of a sudden a sub appears. The boys are in trouble as they are in restricted Naval waters! Fortunately, a little known sub-paragraph in the Defence Act allows prosecution to be waived if they cook a meal on board. As well as cooking in the cramped Galley, Bender and Curtis also check out life on board a sub. Later that day they go crabbing with brothers Brad and Mark Martin for the Sound's succulent Blue Swimmer Crabs. Geoff Peck takes them out to his Mussel lease where he explains how the mussels spawn, sow and grow themselves. The boys go swimming with a pod of Dolphins with Terry Howson plus they check out the huge Grain Silo that loads at 4000 to 5000 tonne an hour and exports over 6 million tonnes of grains every year. They cook on the tranquil shores of Garden Island where the Naval base is located and later surf the big waves on the back of the Island. This week's recipe:Mussels steamed in white wine with capers, caperberries and parsley |
