Question

I need a quick and easy recipe that i can cook in 1 hour because i am at school and it needs to be the theme of valentines thankx x

Answer 1

Any meal can be romantic, it all depends not on the meal but the setting, If you have to do something quick, try something italian, or maybe French, or if you need something quick and simple maybe a stirfry (chinese)

This website has some good ideas, and I have attached a couple of others as well

Answer 2

try this turkish classic it never fails to impress
600 grams sugar
1 glass milk
3 and 1/2 litres water
1/2 tea cup rose water
1/2 tea cup potato starch

To Soak Overnight:
150 grams chick peas
200 grams dry beans
200 grams rice
200 grams wheat

To Have in Reserve:
12 dried apricots
12 dried figs
125 grams raisins
150 grams walnuts
50 grams butter
50 grams pistachio nuts
75 grams pinenuts

Cook the soaked chick peas and beans separately. Drain. Boil the rice in half the water, the wheat in the other half. Cook the rice for 30 minutes and blend it in the water in which it was cooked. Add this puree to the wheat and continue to cook for approximately 3/4 hour. Add the chick peas and beans. Mix and remove from the heat.

Boil the figs, walnuts, raisins, apricots, pine nuts in a large quantity of water. Cut the figs and apricots in four. Put aside 10 pieces each of apricots and figs, 20 pieces of walnuts and half the pine nuts. These will be used for decoration.

Pour the rest of the ingredients, including the butter, but not the milk, rosewater or starch, into the saucepan where the wheat is cooking. Boil for 15 minutes. Add the milk, the starch mixed with rose water, and boil for 3 minutes. Pour into dessert bowls, decorate with the nuts and fruit and serve cool.

Answer 3

Asparagus in Ginger and Satsuma Sauce with Heart Crisps



Ingredients

white potatoes
vegetable oil

asparagus
1 satsuma
ginger

Asparagus
Trim off the bottoms and put into a pan of boiling water for 2-3 minutes. Drain and put on the plate.

Orange and Ginger Sauce
Chop a 1cm square piece of ginger into small cubes and place in a saucepan with the grated rind and squeezed juice of a satsuma.
Heat in the pan and simmer for 5 minutes.
Sieve off the sauce and add 2 tablespoons to the asparagus.

Heart Crisps
Peel the potato then cut into thin strips. Cut the strips into heart shapes using a cookie cutter.
Heat the oil in a frying pan until very hot. Carefully put in the potato strips and fry until golden brown, turning over so they cook on both sides.
When they are ready drain off the excess oil and pat off with kitchen roll.

Take care to make sure the sauce is kept to a minimum. If there is too much the ginger might be too strong and it may leak onto the crisps and make them get soggy.
