Life is beautiful ... and so is my loving wife. I am so grateful I can be married to such a wonderful woman. Yesterday we had our wedding anniversary and it was a delicious day.
For some wedding anniversary may mean to get a gift for his wife like jewellery or something along that road. As for my wife she is very happy and content when I cook something lovely and delicious for her. Now you can judge for yourself what is easier, buying a piece of jewellery or passing quite some time in the kitchen cooking up something delicious.
Did I mention I was very grateful?
Well then, let's get into the food. First of all we started off with something healthy, a beetroot salad.
Ingredients:
2 pre-cooked beetroots, finely sliced
60 g lamb's lettuce
140 g mango, cut in cubes
20 g pumpkin seeds
20 g shavings of parmesan
Red wine vinegar
Olive oil
1 tsp Mustard
1 tsp Honey
Salt, pepper
Method:
The ingredients serve for two plates. This makes sense completely. After all, it was for our anniversary that we were celebrating the two of us.
Arrange the slices of beetroot on a plate, well two plates. Build a circle if you fancy so.
Arrange the lamb's lettuce in the center of the plate.
After that toss on the pieces of mango and the pumpkin seeds.
Then shave over the parmesan, maybe with a potato peeler.
For the dressing mix one part of red wine vinegar with triple the amount of olive oil in a jam jar, for example, together with the mustard, honey and salt and pepper. Dress the salad with ... eh ... this dressing.
Enjoy! Side fact: The beetroot is supposed to be good when you want to build muscles. If not, it's good anyway.
Of course, there was more. For the main plate I cooked up a nice and gorgeously crispy pork belly. It was so awesome.
