Recipe Review

19th February 2011

cadfael from , NS

This one of my go-to recipes for entertaining a small group of 4-6. I have made this many times and it always turns out. I follow the recipe exactly.
The author is truly a cooking teacher and the 5-6 things I have cooked from the book have all turn out well.

Last time I served this meat over small scoops of three purees-roasted garlic mashed potatoes, nutmeg scentd mash of parsips, and sweet potatoes with a hint of cinnamon. My veggies were roasted brussel sprouts and Vichy carrots. I always make sure my appetizer and dessert are very light because it is a rich heavy winter meal, which will be better as a whole when balanced. For instance this time I served a small plate of mixed micro greens lightly tossed with lemon & EVOO, s&p, and toped with 2 large lemon garlic prawns as an appetizer, and a featherlight french crepe stuffed with lightly caramelized apples and lightly drizzled with a calvados caramel, a small dollop of unsweetened cream dusted with edible gold flakes. What a great meal-and most of it prepared ahead-so you can enjoy your company.

The guests asked for the recipe as they always do with this recipe. It is well worth the effort for special occasions.
