Avocado, shrimp, wild garlic – are in record-breaking time on the table and taste heavenly good. A super fast appetizer that leaves plenty of time to enjoy the spring outdoors in the fresh air. Here you can score points for Easter!

Avocado with wild garlic prawns

(4 portions)

2 TS lemon mayonnaise
2 TS yogurt
20 leaves wild garlic, finely chopped
1 pinch of coarse sea salt
6 dashes Tabasco
stir and puree with the blender very briefly, wild garlic leaves should still be visible
2 avocados
2 ts lemon juice
halve the avocados, remove the core, drizzle lemon juice on the surface, salt
16 cocktail prawns, cooked, without head and shell
cut 4 prawns into small pieces, mix with the wild garlic mayonnaise, place on the avocado halves and decorate with the remaining prawns
The plate can be decorated with a few drops of wild garlic oil. Just puree 100 ml rape seed oil with 25 g fresh wild garlic.

And this is how the wife of the captain does it

I like to use the organic lemon mayonnaise from the manufacturer “Münchner Kindl”. For more than hundred years, they have been producing exquisite mustard varieties, mayonnaises and other fine sauces. I discovered this brand on the Viktualienmarkt in Munich, where the Münchner Kindl has its origin. You can also get the products in well-stocked supermarkets or online.

Thai glass noodle soup

Piedmontese chocolate pudding with vanilla quince

A beautiful and strong coffee, anyone? Then, after a substantial meal, this specialty from the Piedmont is the right! In Piedmont, this pudding is called also Bonèt, because its form probably reminds something to a hat or a chef’s hat. Another story around the Bonèt comes from the Langhe. It states that one puts so to speak “a hat” – a crown – on dinner with this dessert. Anyhow, it tastes excellently and even better when prepared the day before. Incredibly handy when you expect guests.

 

PS: The Vanilla Quinces are a perfect match!
