I spent about 2 hours going around the supermarket picking out different things and trying to figure out what i felt like making...this is what i ended up getting :
- a box of shitake mushrooms (they are a bit expensive, but very tasty and meaty)
- baby carrots
- a bunch of asparagus
- some parsley
- a couple of clementines
- rasberries
- pea shoots
- lettuce gems
- a lemon
- 2 pork chops
- a pink lady apple
- butter
I started by making a salad using the pea shoots, raspberries, and quartered lettuce gems.
I then made the vinaigrette by mixing together the juice of a clementine, 2 table spoons of olive oil, a table spoon of lemon juice, a few crushed raspberries, salt, pepper, and the zest of half a clementine and quarter of a lemon.
I then moved on to the making of the Pièce de résistance...
I started by cleaning the mushrooms and the other vegetables. After having peeled the end of the asparagus (that nasty bit that you usually can't eat is actually really nice if you peel it), i put them to steam with the carrots.
And that was it, my mother arrived, i plated everything up (the presentation wasn't the best), and we just tucked in !
