Today I prepared tenderloin (“varkenshaas”) for Marion and me. I tried something new and it worked out well (Miranda, thank you for making my idea complete).
I prepared a marinade of peanut oil (“arachide olie”). I mixed the oil with black pepper, salt, cinnamon, clove and nutmeg. I placed the tenderloin for hour in the marinade, turning it every now and around.
I heated a little olive oil and baked the tenderloin. First on a high fire, later on a low fire. Next I wrapped the tenderloin in aluminium foil for around 10 minutes.
When placing the tenderloin on the dish I smeared some goat cheese on top of it. You could watch it melt. After the cheese was nice melted I spread some caraway over it.
I wok-baked leek, red onion, parsley and chestnut mushrooms in olive oil. After all was mixed up and nice on temperature I added a home-made teriyaki sauce (rice wine, soy sauce, sugar, ginger, bouillon and olive oil).
I serviced some fruit compote (apple and pear) along with it. On the compote as spread some cinnamon.
I know, my dishes could be decorated much nicer. But somehow that is not important for me (although I can understand that for a professional as Miranda it is very important). For me the taste counts… but then again, I am not a professional :).
It all tasted wonderful again. but I do admit that I used a little too much olive oil for the teriyaki sauce.
After we cleaned up the kitchen we both just wanted to lean back and relax for the last evening of the weekend. And how to do this better then watching a nice movie? So while I was looking through my DvD’s and BluRay’s I picked up “The Blue Brothers” DvD. It was a long time ago I watched that movie. I showed the movie to Marion and she agreed that was a good movie to watch.
But there was something I really never noticed before…
The Blues Brothers DvD I have is not normal one, it is the 25 year anniversary DvD! And today I noticed something I never noticed before. The package holds 2 DvD’s… and on the second DvD is the extended theatrical version of the movie! Marion adn I agreed on watching that one…
And oh, what a movie… lots of extreme good music… and so much humour!!!
Anyone who hasn’t seen The Blues Brothers???? Be ashamed…. be very ashamed!!!!
“And this one is for Wilson Pickett…”
