Romantic candle light dinner - how to avoid mistakes

One girl, let's call her Lenochka, decided to make a romantic candlelight dinner for her husband. I sent the kids to spend the night with my mother. I bought champagne and made a light snack - several types of canapé. She put on a beautiful dress, high heels, lacy underwear, made up her make-up and hair. In a word prepared. As soon as her husband returned from work, lit candles and invited him to the table. The spouse quickly dumped cooked sandwiches and washed down with champagne.

Further events did not develop according to the planned scenario. Dealing with light snacks, the husband looked at Lena with a hungry look and with one simple question completely killed all the romance: "What do we have for dinner?". I had to get a chicken out of the freezer and peel potatoes.

Familiar scenario? If so, please accept our condolences. If you are just preparing for a romantic candlelight dinner, learn from other people's mistakes. In any case, this article will help plan an almost perfect evening. Our heroine made only two mistakes, but they irretrievably spoiled so carefully planned dinner by candlelight.

Error one is wrong time. A romantic tete-a-tete is planned on a working day. This in any case should not be done. Both of you are tired, at work there were conflicts with the authorities or subordinates. At home, a reflex is triggered - eat tight, watch TV and fall asleep. Before going to bed, fast sex is possible. If unbearable, better go to a restaurant, and then walk a little. Let it be like a date.

The second mistake is too easy food. Dinner by candlelight should not be too light or too dense. Otherwise, in the first case, a man in search of "Cho to devour" will climb into the refrigerator, and in the second - just settle to sleep.

And at this stage we come to the main question. Dinner by candlelight, what to cook? Food should be light, but nourishing. Ask your partner what he does not eat. For example, some do not like the liver, while in others fried zucchini or eggplants cause disgust. Nuts, honey or peaches can cause an allergic anaphylactic shock. So do not forget to ask your partner for an allergy.

All dishes should be batch, so that nothing has to be cut or broken. We do not need fat hands. Registration and filing also play an important role. We offer to prepare a hearty, but not heavy candlelight dinner, which consists of three dishes.

The main dish is a chicken or fish. It is prepared quickly, but it turns out delicious.

If you decide to cook chicken, then you need 2 chicken fillets totaling 500-600 grams, spices for chicken, you can get by with salt and pepper, onion, kiwi, orange, 50 grams of butter and as much sunflower, flour.

Chicken breast carefully repel, sprinkle with spices and roll in flour. Pour the vegetable oil into the frying pan and fry the fillet from all sides. The fire is moderately average, the time for frying is 10 minutes. While the fillet is roasting, take another pan, put butter into it, crumble the onion with half rings and fry on low heat until it is transparent, squeeze the juice of one orange into the frying pan, and roll the finely chopped kiwi there. Fire reduce to a minimum and extinguish 2-3 minutes. Add the meat and fruit sauce to a small saucepan, add half a cup of water and simmer for another 5 minutes, but no more. Finished meat turns out very tender, with exotic notes. Prepare friable rice or mashed potatoes as a garnish. The bird is served with red or pink wine.

To the chicken, serve a simple salad of vegetables. Cut cucumbers, tomatoes, Bulgarian pepper, a little greens, salt, pepper, add a couple drops of lemon or orange juice and season with vegetable oil.

You can cook a more complex salad dressed with mayonnaise. I offer salad from crab sticks and corn.

For 2 servings you will need: crab sticks or boiled squid - 200 grams, half a can of canned corn, 2 boiled eggs, 1 fresh cucumber, green onions, 2 tablespoons of crumbly rice. All the ingredients are finely chopped, seasoned with mayonnaise and salt.

Serve salads in separate salads. In the markets, special wafer baskets are sold. You can put a plate of salad leaves, and on them set the baskets with salad.

In order that no one remains hungry, prepare a slicing from several sorts of cheese. It goes well with wine.

And the control shot is a dessert.

As a dessert, fruit and chocolate will completely come down. But with a strong desire to serve ice cream. Buy a seal and an orange. Place the ice cream in the croissants and put it in the freezer. On a clean, dry frying pan, throw a piece of butter, there also send a tablespoon of sugar and put on a small fire. With an orange, peel and cut in half. With one half squeeze the juice, the second clean and cut into pieces. When the mass in the frying pan starts to boil, add the finely chopped zest. Then add the orange juice. Vigorously stir and bring to a boil. It was the turn of pieces of orange. A couple of minutes left and turned off. Must get a measure of thick sauce. Warm the warm sauce with pieces of fruit on ice cream.

It may be that after two dishes, slicing and wine, the queue for ice cream will not reach. Dont be upset. It's just that his finest hour has not come yet. If candlelight dinner reaches its goal, you will need to strengthen your strength.
