A taste of the orient

Now that we have a useable kitchen, my cooking talents can once again be shown off.
On the menu for this evening, we have a deep fried calameri with prawn crackers and dipping sauces for a starter, spicy veal dumplings, salmon roulade and noodles for main course. Topping it all off with a Tarte Framboise and fresh cream.
I thought it was worth mentioning dinner today as Janes colleagues at work love to know what she's having every night. I will point out though that Won Ton wrappers are an absoloute pain to work with, especially when you have fingers like mine.
We're also having a kids menu tonight of the traditional bread and water. Nothing beats the old favourites.

Sounds good. You must start cooking chinese more often.

Hope the snow is now all gone.

Did you really make that strawberry thingy. What's that dough stuff at the bottom. It looks delicious.
