if this menu doesnt make her take her pants off then get her drunk
i don't do enough cooking, to have anything that is really a speciality and guessing warmed up Pizza doesnt really count
but.... the best i can do is beans on burnt toast ( thats after 3 attemps to cook none burnt toast, and then giving up, cause the beans are going all wierd in the pan)
Hmmmm... my mind has gone a blank with regards to starters, so for that reason I would say canapes and just get people working up their appetite.
Then I'm pretty profficient at making crispy peking duck with spring onion and cucumber and hoy sin sauce etc.
For dessert I found a great recipe for brandy and chocolate mousse that should be served with clotted cream. I also make my own icecream and sorbets.
Last time I had anyone over for a meal was about 6 weeks ago now and yes I did the crispy duck thing.
do a mean spanish tapas patas bravas chorizo in garlic saute gambas mushrooms in white wine etc etc etc only trouble is it makes me a cow to go out n actually pay for a spanish meal as i sit there thinkin i could have cooked this better for a fraction of the cost having said that theres nothing betta than being taken out for a meal rather than preparin it yourself least ways theres no washing up (thas the killer lol )
cabonara
chorizo
tart tatin
brushetta
toulade
what on earth arre these things?
I can cook. But never know what to call the result.
'research' might cover it.
lp
toast ... but even that i either burn or drop on the floor !!!
Mine would be beef stroganoff using lovely sliced fillet of beef.
Not really into deserts, so would probably end up buying that from the deli
I love to cook, in younger days I spent 4 years at catering college, and loved it.
I have worked in younger days in major hotels all over the country, and seen most dishes cooked / served.
I can cook most things, it is getting certain people to eat it that is the problem!!!
I personally love roast dinners.
I'm not a fab cook but the kids like it...
Prawn cocktail
Belly of pork covered in raw stuffing roasted in the oven :lickface:, with roast potatos and veg.
Trifle :lickface:
Will have to think about a starter and a pud, sorry thats a bit lame...
However, I do a pretty fookin fantastic lardons/pancetta, leeks, white wine, mascarpone, ground nutmeg and pasta type thing...
Ooooh... what would I cook if you came round to mine?
Not sure on a starter, but how about a lemon chicken rissoto? Or maybe chicken, chorizo and prawn jambalaya? Or steak with home made chips... oooh or dauphinoise potatoes? Or a steak and ale pie?
:lickface:
I love cooking for people. Crap at cooking for myself but I love to do it for others.
