Another one with the friends... :)
Another dinner with the close friends :)
This time round, I ventured a 2 course meal with the help of Ms Clover. It's again simple food that we find easy to prepare as well as to cook coz on Friday, I had to take an assignment in the midst of the afternoon.
We started off with an appetiser of Panfried Foie Gras on Baby butterhead leaf, then a simple homecooked Chinese Borsch Soup (as Char Siu Pau says, for the Soupsters) which I started cooking in the morning, then the mains of pan-seared salmon seasoned with seasalt, basil, olive oil, thyme and lemon juice, raisin & cashew nut pilaf rice and a side sauce of japanese honeyed curry....
Frankly, there are a lot to improve on but at least I managed to get the salmon cooked nicely (juicy and not dry) this time round :) Of coz I added a little secret ingredient (the famed fungus oil) for the smell and taste also...
Anyway, it was a good time of fellowship and Wii-Gaming for the Yveon duo as S_CRV and family had to leave early for lil Edgar's bedtime :)
*thanks you guys for being my 'guinea pigs' on my culinary learning... :p
