As those of you who read my posts will have noticed I am now trying to focus 100% on food and private dining instead of being a legal advisor.
So lucky for me my good friend Christina Egelund asked me to make her birthday dinner.
We talked a lot about what she would like to have and ended up with this menu:
appetizers:
crispy rye bread with a duck rillette with tarragon, lemon and garlic dressed with a 30 year old balsamico and some sorrel.
Quail eggs with mushroom mayonnaise with serrano ham and chervil.
Starter:
ovenbaked cod placed og a bit of steamed spinach with a sauce nage and garnished with red sorrel and dill.
Main course:
beef wellington made with venison and served with a pomme anna, butter and thyme steamed carrots and a port wine glace.
For dessert a decomposed tarte au citron – a halved lemon filled with lemon cream and placed on a bed of crumble with a top of meringue.
