I invited my cousins to try out some of the new dishes I created. One is Straw Mushrooms with Chives and Red Wine Reduction. The other one is the Wok Charred Garlic Butter Prawns. Both dishes are absolutely delicious yet not prefect.
Straw Mushrooms with Chives and Red Wine Reduction is a dish that has strong flavour with chives and garlics. Both of them are complement to each other and produce a flavour that bring contrast to the flavour of the fresh straw mushrooms. The red wine is added to the dish and is reduced to give a sweet and rich taste to balance the strong flavours from the garlic and chives. My cousins and sister love the dish very much. I guess I should have add in carrot in to the dish as well. Both carrot and straw mushroom have earthly flavour and complement to each other. Furthermore carrot add colours and excitement to the dish. This dish is absolutely delicious.
Wok Charred Garlic Butter Prawns is a modification of Garlic Prawns from Chef Gordon Ramsay. The butter and garlic work together and add flavours and fragrance to the fresh sea prawns. I added too much dried chilies and this transforms this dish from western to Sichuan cuisine. Lemon juice is added to the dish to reduce the spiciness of the dried chilies and added in sour flavour which is complement to seafood. The prawns are absolutely spicy yet absolutely delicious.
