A boneless filet of salmon about 3" or 4" square by 1/2" to 3/4" thick.
Raw potato grated french fry size but paper thin.
Cover each side of the salmon with a very thin layer of the potato shavings and fry it in butter until the potato is browned. The fish should not be overdone. You might want to test the cooking time before you serve it to a "guest".
Serve some veggies alongside, make it look nice, and have some wine or a light beer.
Prepare for battle. :army::kiss2:
Ye good olde fashioned roast...
Though an omelette sealed the deal for me once. At lunchtime too!
fried turkey
Spanish Potato Omelette - Serves Two
225g Waxy Potatoes
Salt and Black Pepper
1/2 Red Onion
1 Clove of Garlic
1/2 Red Pepper
2 tablespoons of Olive Oil
50g Frozen Peas
Three Large Eggs
25g Cheddar Cheese
1 Tablespoon Chopped Fresh Parsley
Peel and cube the potatoes and then cook them in boiling, salted water until tender. Then drain them. Meanwhile, peel and chop the onion and crush the garlic. Then de-seed and chop the pepper.
Heat half the oil in a large frying pan for three minutes. Add the crushed garlic, the pepper and the peas. Fry it for three minutes, and then transfer the mixture to a plate.
Heat the remaining olive oil in the pan. Add the potatoes and cook for eight minutes, stirring it while it does this. Meanwhile, beat the eggs and add the cheese to the pan containing the potatoes. Then, add the salt and black pepper. Return the onion mixture to the pan along with the parsley. Reduce the heat slightly and pour the eggs over the mixture.
Cook the omelette until the eggs have set. Loosen the edges with a palette knife, and turn it out onto a plate. You can then serve it hot or cold.
Hope this helps you, good luck with your cooking/date, cheers!

My tip would be choose a receipe that does not require much cooking at the time. You want to be wowing her with your witty reparte, not swearing at the frying pan.
How about pot roast poussin. I found this receipe
Personnally I might replace the paprika with ground ginger (but not rubbed into the poussin), and the lemon with tamarind, whereupon this would be pretty close to a delicious iranian dish my wife cooks whose name I don't know. (the dish, not my wife)Quote:
Ingredients
2 poussins
1 red pepper
1 yellow pepper
1 red onion
1 lemon
A handful of cherry tomatoes
Spanish smoked paprika
Olive oil
Sea salt and pepper
Rub the paprika over the poussins so that they are well covered. Chop the peppers and onion into bite sized pieces and cut the lemon into eights. Put these into the dish with the tomatoes and poussins and sprinkle over some sea salt, pepper and olive oil. Roast at 200c for 40-50 minutes until the poussins are cooked through.
Roast a few vegetables to have alongside and hey presto, a minimum fuss meal leaving you with plenty of time to get the mojo working.
Mm, now I got a craving for fondue. Preferably in female company with shoddy fondue forks and a strict adherence to the traditional fondue etiquette.Quote:
