friday dinner

It's seriously hot here folks.  Summer has hit Berlin and it feels so good to be able to leave my apartment in the morning with just a whisper of a cool breeze knowing that we a destined for another day of blue, sunny skies and summer-y goodness.  The one downside is that our apartment is kinda hot.  Hot enough that I don't really want to be cooking over a hot stove tonight and we're planning on sharing a nice meal at home with my sister and her boyfriend before perhaps heading out to a cocktail bar around the corner.  So I need a nice, summer dish that doesn't need to much cooking.  Any suggestions?  I'm thinking about making cold Soba Noodles with Wakame and Ginger dressing for starters, but I need a main.  I'm happy to pop something in the over (quiche), but I'm not interested in stirring something for 20 minutes (risotto). Help!

What happened to a poem on Thursday? I suggest a caesar salad version - substituting a good Italian canned tuna for the bacon so you don't have to cook that, plus / minus anchovies. Plus good virgin olive oil and parmesan (shaved from the block of course)and perhaps a few dollops of Maille Hollondaise sauce. Bon appetit! SB

if in doubt you can always throw anything into a cous cous....prawns,tuna,chicken,dukkah, nuts,currants, grated carrots, capsicum, fresh herbs, lemon juice etc..it's endless and always tastes good.I expect a picture of the final dishes! Jenny
