Hubby's annual special dinner is here!!! hahaha.... just joking... he probably makes dinner more than once a year, but only if I keep on asking him to make me a nice dinner though!!! =P
This dinner was definitely very impressive!!!! Restaurant quality for sure!!!!
Menu of the night:
Roasted garlic and potato soup
Roasted spiced potato with flame grilled prawn
Porterhouse steak with horseradish cream sauce
Chocolate Fondant with vanilla ice-cream

We had the soup as the first entree, it was garlicky and very creamy - even though hubby said he didn't put in any cream because he couldn't be bother buying a 300ml bottle when he only needed to use less than 1/3 of it! But it was the soup to die for. If I saw the name of this dish, I actually wouldn't even waste my time looking into it, because it sounds like a very heavy and filling soup and will give you a very bad breath afterwards. But in fact, this soup is light in texture, and the amount of garlic flavour was just right, and I can ensure you that you won't get a garlicky breath afterwards!!!

The second entree - roasted spiced potato and flame grilled prawn - although it sounds a bit ordinary, but it was really awesome in taste. The potato was spiced with paprika and chili, so it actually has a mild spiciness to it - not too hot. The prawn was delicious!!! Apparently hubby didn't need to marinate the prawns at all, only a small sprinkle of salt then flame grilled it with a cream brulee torch. Therefore it was kinda like half cooked and half raw, and you can really taste the sweetness of prawn!!!!!! I wanted more!!!!!

Steak... I reckon cooking beef is a challenge, but I always tend to either over cook it or under cook it, never just right! But hubby managed to cook it perfectly - pink in the center with the perfect sauce on the top. He made this horseradish sauce with garlic butter which tasted awesome with the beef!!!!!! Yummmm...

You see.... hubby can be a top cook if he wants to be!!!! hehehe... =)
