Celebrate Chinese New Year 2015

February 18, 2015 Leave a Comment

Happy-New-Year-2015-With-Chinese-Goat 

 

After a gluttony of feast-like days (Valentine’s and Pancake Day) this last week it’s perhaps time to ditch the take-away menus and celebrate Chinese New Year with a light touch.  We will mark the feast with this tasty salmon recipe that is the perfect light dish for bariatrics. It is made up of succulent salmon on a bed of crunchy stir-fry like vegetables made all the more flavoursome with Asian spices. It can be made from scratch with just a quick shop then cooked and on the table in no time at all. Do note it only serves 2 so double if you want to serve 4. To make the dish a little more substantial for non-bariatrics, serve with a little cooked rice or egg noodles. And enjoy the start of 2015 Year of the Goat!
