The Main Event
Setting the scene:
Salmon with Hearts and Roses.
Wanda loved playing word games – such fun and can lead to a spanking good evening.
They write down all the words you see here, cut them into strips and turn them over. Now one at a time they reveal each word and create a sentence using that ‘erotic’ word including their lover’s name and woven in words to describe their favourite fantasy.
Hearts and roses are on the plate, red petals are scattered around the table and Wanda gently takes her lovers hand and kisses it so, so softly. Now its time to share great food – soon you’ll both be in a sexy mood…
For 2 lovers
Get on with it…
Salmon with Hearts and Roses.
Into a clean tea towel grate 2 medium peeled potatoes. Twist up the cloth & squeeze out any excess liquid.
Put the potato into a bowl & add 3 spring onions, very finely diced, 1 tsp Himalayan salt, (its pretty & pink) 2 tsp Aleppo pepper & mix it all together.
Using a large cutter, or get creative, cut 2 x 200g salmon fillets into heart shapes.
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil with 20g unsalted butter in a large frying pan.
Using half the potato mix put 2 mounds into the pan & press the salmon hearts into each. Press the remaining potato onto the top of the fish & cook gently for 5-6 minutes on each side or until the potato is golden & the salmon cooked through.
While this divine dish is cooking poach 12 asparagus spears in simmering salted water for 3-4 minutes depending how large your spears are (lucky you) until cooked al dente.
Take a sharp knife & peel off the skins of 2 firm tomatoes in wide continuous spirals. Wind each into a loving rosebud.
Melt 15g butter in a small pan & add 15g flour to make roux. Add a splash of white wine, 200ml double cream & a good pinch of saffron, stirring all the time until you have a voluptuous sauce.
Put the salmon onto a warm serving plate, arrange the asparagus around it and garnish with the rosebuds of love. Add the saffron sauce & serve with love.
