Our Valentine's Dinner this year started with my favorite. Seared scallops, pureed sweet potatoe and corn succatash.
Then we had lobster risotto. I made lobster stock with the shells to use as a base for the risotto. Once the rice was cooked we added lobster chunks, a bit of lemon zest and fresh parm cheese. Syd helped me by spending the 20 minutes to stir the rice while I prepared the rest of the meal. He's such a sweetie.
Dessert was kinda silly. Ice cream sandwiches! lol I noticed there was a cake mix in the cupboard that really had to be used so I made "cookies" with it. I used less water then the recipe called for to make a thicker batter. I then put a scoop of ice cream between the cookies and Voila! Ice cream sandwiches! lol
That looks so yummy!!
ReplyDeleteI can just picture Syd stirring the risotto!
