Pepper steak with salad and pea mint puree

Yesterday my friend Marlen came over to Aicuisine and after a wonderful summer day I decided for a quick and easy summer menu, because we were both starving after a long long day. Being a photographer herself she now and then grabbed my camera and took a few pictures of me preparing the food. Thank you for that!

Here is the very simple recipe:

Ingredients

Pea Puree

150g peas
2 tsp mint jelly or fresh mint
1-2 tsp grated ginger
pepper + salt
100ml milk

Summer Salad

1 mango
2 peaches
ginger
5 white mushrooms
1 garlic
1 fennel
1 red raddish
orange olive oil
sherry vinegar
pepper + salt

Sauce

100ml cream
cherry apple juice
pepper + salt
1 tsp corn starch

4 pepper steaks

The preparation is super simple! Heat peas with milk, grater ginger and spices and after 5min of cooking mash into a creamy purree! Add some cream to make it more fluffy! For the summer salad cut everything into pieces and slices and season with olive oil, sherry vinergar and salt + pepper. For the sauce mix cream, juice and spices and leave a bit of the cream to mix with the tsp corn starch. Heat the mix and if it starts boiling add the corn starch mix, stir a bit and take off heat. Roast the steak from both sides, let it rest for 5 minutes and serve! Ready is your super light summer meal!

    Stuff like this warms me up to the idea of being overweight.

    An interesting ireendignt that you might try is an Onion Soup Mix' packet.Gives a wonderful smell and makes a delicious bread. I like to do it with wheat bread, and I use sour cream to give the loaf a good texture.(And, of course, nothing beats grinding your own wheat )
