What's for Sunday night dinner?

We went away this weekend and the food was shocking! I think we spoilt at home :) All we needed was a good home cooked meal to complete this weekend. Dinner today spicy crab soup with home made chilli garlic focaccia... 

What's for dinner? Chilli crusted salmon...

Chilli, black pepper and parsley crusted salmon. Avo and sesame seed salad. Baked potato. 

Inspired by seared salmon sushi. The combination of salmon, cucumber, Avo, sesame seed & soya works well. Definitely one to try again as it was super quick to make 

Strawberries in season

Quickest, easiest dessert

 

Lindt chilli dark chocolate covered strawberries.

How to make them:

Wash and dry strawberries

Melt chocolate pieces in the microwave for 30s, stir chocolate

then another 30 s

stir again until melted. Heat again if not all

melted.

Coat strawberries in the chocolate, place on grease

proof paper on a tray - set in fridge

 

Inspired by Vietnam

After travelling to Vietnam in February this year, I was inspired by the fresh flavours of Vietnam. My favourite starter has to be the crystal spring roll. I finally tried this for a dinner we hosted on Friday night. They were fun to make and came out pretty OK if I say so myself :)

 

Filling: Sautéed prawns, fresh basil mint coriander & lettuce, rice vermicelli

 

Dipping sauces:  home made sweet and sour chilli sauce and a peanut flavoured hoisin.
