The day i made dinner for a fish.

Hi ajk Friends and Food for Impression - doesnt quite get on well with me I always try and cook what I can cook good. No matter whether the friend likes or not. I love chicken and also mushrooms with capsicum. So I guess, they will be on my menu whenever I cook and for a reason of celebration. However normally, as there are many here in India who would not prefer non veg on specific days, I would settle with Spinach, cheese and in case I get nothing (depending on the season) I guess... it will be simply... fruits.

Hello ajk, I have tried to make 2 or 3 times here English food for friends -- I spent a lot of holidays in England near an old aunt when I was a kid -- and they were horrified only by the view of a Lancashire black pudding. I don't tell you what would happen with haggis. I think that the best think we can make is something local and a bit rare. By example here we have a local trout in one river -- sadly disappearing because of trout farming --, called "grassette" -- it means "fatty" -- which has to be fished by yourself if you want to eat it. I had also some success in spring with a simple hops sprouts omelette : hops sprouts can't be bought in my area, though they were commonly eaten in the past, but we have to forage them. Not expensive, maybe not impressive, but really appreciated.

I guess I would make some dumplings! I love them, so as my friends. Another fantastic idea is to make a lasagne. If You are looking for something easy then You could try Chinese food - it always tastes good. If my friend was staying at my place I would make some snacks. Tortilla chips with dip, some onion rings or just the usual tosts/sandwiches.
