Spaguetti chirashi way

I thought I would name this one like this, I think it’s pretty funny. This recipe is an example of the result of an impulsive and unguarded mix of components.

The Ingredients (For 2)

– 250 g of spaguetti
– 2 avocados
– smoked or raw salmon
– 15 cl of cream
– fresh dill
– 1 lemon
– 2 tbs olive oil
– 1 ts soy sauce

The Recipe

Cook your pasta as usual.
In a bowl, mix the cream, the lemon juice, soy sauce, olive oil, dill, and avocados cut in cubes. Add salt and pepper but not too much salt if you are using smoked salmon.
Put the pasta into the sauce and stir.
Serve, and put the salmon on top, which was cut into cubes or thin slices.

Spinach and sweet potato salad

There is something very awkward and quite fascinating about my memory : I remember almost every single meal I have eaten since my childhood. Name a place, a date, a meeting, a restaurant, I’ll name the meal we had. This is why the other day I remembered that 6 ou 7 years ago, in Sydney, Australia, Bondi Beach, I tasted this exquisite and yet simple salad. Thus I tried to create and put a piece of a dream into form. It had a lot of success.

The Ingredients (for a very big salad like this one)
– a big pack of spinach salad (350 g)
– 3 sweet potatoes
– herbs (rosmarin, thyme, cumin)
– goat cheese (1 standard box)
– pine nuts

The Recipe

Cut the potatoes into cubes. Put them into a dish, sprinkle with olive oil and herbs, salt and pepper.
Bake for about 40 minutes at 180℃, depending of your oven…Let it become crispy.
Bake the pine nuts into a pan, until they become slightly brown.
Mix all the ingredients, with the salad and the goat cheese.
Add your favorite dressing (mine was just simple olive oil and balsamic vinegar).
