Chinese Lunch at the Berval

Broccoli and Mushroom Stir-Fry

I cooked just one meal during my 2-week vacation : Caramel Prawns, Ginger Chicken and Broccoli & Mushroom Stir-fry. Served on steamed Jasmine Rice. That was for our Saturday, post-Christmas lunch.

Ginger Chicken

Caramel Prawns (with an organic star anise)

Couldn't do anything elaborate as MIL's larder is empty. Had to make do with the garlic, onion, ginger, soy sauce, Thai chillies and corn starch that I managed to find in the nearest supermarket. Add the fresh ingredients, salt and sugar and you get a complete meal!

Hub's Scallops

Hub prepared the perfectly-cooked Pan-grilled Scallops flambeed in some alcohol and MIL invited us to the yummy mignardises. I know, we were supposed to detox after Christmas but still managed to have a little feast. Incorrigible.

Réligieuses, macarons, tartelettes...
