Dinner party

No pictures this time, but the food was good...

I started with the same curried cauliflower puree, but this time I topped it with shrimps poached in vanilla tarragon butter.

For the main course, I made my "Chinese sweet and sour pork ribs": it is flavored with hoisin, ground bean paste, rice vinegar, and brown sugar. This is served with some carrots that were cooked in the vanilla butter, as well as ginger-green onion risotto cakes.

For the dessert, it was a simple chocolate hazelnut mousse pie with a raspberry coulis. It was not fruitless...
