Anyone have a really good recipe for a man to cook for a celebratory dinner at home?
I’ve been ill for about 3 weeks and, although I had gifts for my wife for our anniversary and have them for her birthday, I’ve not been up to taking her out for dinner. I’d appreciate a good, simple to fix, yet festive or unusual recipe for a special dinner. If you’d pull out your cookbooks and provide me the recipe, I’d appreciate it. I can cook, I just haven’t lately. Thanks.
Scallop Pie-Irish
(6 servings)
8 lg Scallops*
300 ml Milk
2 Salt and pepper
2 tb Butter
1 tb Flour
1/2 lb Mushrooms, sliced
4 tb Med.sweet white wine
1 lb Fresh mashed potatoes
* Or 4 scallops and an equal amount of any white fish. Or more scallops, if you like.
Clean the scallops and cut in half, then simmer in the milk for 15 minutes. Strain, reserving the liquid. Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter and stir in the flour, cook for about a minute, stirring, then add the milk gradually, stirring all the time to avoid lumps. Season with salt and pepper, add the sliced mushrooms and simmer for about 10 minutes longer; then add the sherry or wine and finally the scallops. When hot, transfer to an ovenproof dish and cover with mashed potatoes, making sure they cover the fish right to the edges. Dot with the remaining butter and bake in a moderate oven, 350F, for 20-30 minutes, or until the top is turning brown.

and I hope your feeling better and don’t forget the presentation of the meal….tablecoth, candles, flowers ect….

Thailand: The Beautiful Cookbook (Hardcover) $55 Open the hardcover Thailand The Beautiful Cookbook and you’re starting a sumptuous tasting tour of the beautiful nation. More than just a collection of recipes, the volume delves into the geographical and cultural influences that have shaped and spiced Thai cuisine. The Thailand cookbook, Thailand: The Beautiful Cookbook, is also filled with evocative photographs of the food, the land, and the people. The hardcover Thailand the Beautiful Cookbook is a joyous celebration of Thailand, its people, and its cuisine. The range and diversity of Thai cooking is showcased in this magnificent collection of authentic recipes from each of the four regions of Thailand. In the Thailand cookbook, Thailand: The Beautiful Cookbook, you’ll learn that from the South, where the cooking reflects a Malay influence, comes a tantalizing array of curries and delicious seafood dishes. The Central Plains region, with the huge vibrant city of Bangkok as its focus, is the most fertile part of the country and is rich in fresh produce. In the Thailand book, Thailand: The Beautiful Cookbook, you’ll see that the North has a very distinctive cuisine based on glutinous rice, and the dishes that accompany it are generally milder than those of the Central and Northeastern regions. In the Northeast, the influence of nearby Laos is felt and dishes tend to be highly spiced. In the Discovery book, Thailand The Beautiful Cookbook, see how Thai-born chef and culinary expert Panurat Poladitmontri and his partner, Judy Lew, have prepared a superb collection of authentic recipes, each of which has been individually photographed by leading food photographer John Hay and beautifully styled by Ann Creber. Internationally renowned photographers Luca Invernizzi Tettoni and John Hay present a spectacular collection of photographs to show Thailand’s great scenic diversity, from the beaches and jungles of the South to the misty mountains of the North, and the varied lives of it’s people. The hardcover Thailand The Beautiful Cookbook also features William Warren, who has spent many years in Thailand, and who writes with an insider’s knowledge. He takes the reader on an absorbing trip around the country discussing the various influences historical, physical, racial and cultural that have formed the distinctive culture of the Thai people. The Thailand Cookbook, Thailand The Beautiful Cookbook, includes an extensive glossary to ensure that any cooks who are unfamiliar with oriental ingredients and presentation will have no difficulty in bringing this wonderful selection of Thai dishes to their tables. Shop for the hardcover Thailand The Beautiful Cookbook and learn how to cook memorable, flavorful meals from the beautiful Southeast Asian nation. |
