Dinner for Two:
Sauté de Boeuf à la Parisienne (Beef Sauté with Cream and Mushroom Sauce), served with tagliatelle noodles and "Jürgen Ellwanger" Lemberger 2007. The recipe calls for 2 1/2 lbs. filet of beef. A high quality filet costs about 36 euros for two pounds. I halved the recipe :-) and only spent 18 euros for the beef alone! I've seen filet of beef in restaurants go for over 25 euros a pop, so I guess it'll always be better to cook at home (and at least I know what I'm eating). The recipe was fantastic, but didn't top the Boeuf Bourguignon at my parents!
Thursday is the only evening I get home from work before 8 pm. This gives me the opportunity to try out new recipes, prepare a warm meal and to wind down from an afternoon of teaching. I just want to share my Thursday nights with you.
