Different colors of plates have a different effect on plated food. Light colored food pops on dark plates, dark colored food stands out on light plates.Black plates are my favorite because they have a way of making food pop on the plate regardless of the color.

The flavor of the pork ribs lingered in my mouth hours after eating them- that’s how bomb they were! The trick to making mouthwatering ribs is to let them seer in a pan till they are slightly crispy and slightly burnt before coating them in the sauce.

When making the rice cylinders, try not to use basmati rice because it is very fluffy hence it will be very hard for the rice grains to stick to each other in order for the cylinders to remain intact.

Slightly undercooking the rice is also another way to have intact rice cylinders.

Servings:2

1 Packet of pork ribs 650g ( preferably pre-marinated)

• 1 cup cooked rice ( seasoned with salt)

• Carrot ribbons ( use a potato peeler)
• 3 small radish (thinly sliced)

1. Season the pork ribs with salt if you are not using pre-marinated ribs.
2. Fry them on high heat in a non-stick skillet for about 8 minutes on each side (let them crisp up a bit in the pan).
3. Remove the ribs from the skillet.
4. Place the ingredients for the pork rib sauce in the same pan and let the sauce cook on medium heat until it has thickened.
5. Coat the ribs in the sauce.

Culinary bravado can easily become intuitive upon adequate exposure to a range of cuisines. This dish  is absurdly easy even though it looks it just came out of a top class fine dining restaurant. Even the name suggests it can’t just be called mashed potatoes and steak even though that is exactly what it is . I named this dinner in Catalan and the literal translation is ‘steak on starch’. 

The secret to super smooth mashed potatoes is a blender! If you feel like the mashed potatoes are too thick keep adding a bit milk until the right consistency is attained (not too runny but not too thick). The Asian inspired sauce that coats the beef  has a spicy kick from the ginger that will tantalize your tastebuds and is effortlessly completed with the sweetness of the tomato sauce and sugar. If you don’t try this recipe out, your tastebuds will never forgive you for that!

This magnificent gourmet creation is undoubtedly a stellar representation of the magic of an unleashed culinary imagination . If you’ve been a loyal follower of my blog then it comes as no surprise that I am utterly obsessed with classy fine dining. Firstly, trying to get a name for this meal was an unachievable task only because it comprises of so many components so it was hard to find a name that encapsulates all the elements of the meal.

This superb creation is a combination of Asian inspired elements. On the light blue platter there are strips of fish fillets , accompanied by rice shaped into small cylinders then chicken teriyaki . The decorative elements I used were : lemon wedges, yellow peppers, red onion slices then thinly sliced beetroots that I grilled in the oven for about 15 minutes at 190 degrees Celsius in order  to achieve the wilted ‘flowery’ look .

The second gourmet phenomenon is a stack of thinly sliced grilled potatoes , avocado slices, shredded bbq chicken , pineapple, more shredded bbq chicken topped with a stack of  crispy purple and golden spaghetti. Obviously the crispy spaghetti on the top was just a decorative element and it is note really meant to be eaten with the rest of the meal.
