Marinated ginger tofu with green asparagus and tomatoes

24h before:
Slice tofu and marinate in chopped garlic, ginger, some fresh lime juice, some sugar (better of course is maple syrop) and soy sauce.

On the stove:
Break off asparagus bottoms and cook for 20 minutes.

Heat up grape seed oil and fry fresh onions and tofu slices in pan for 10 minutes. Add cashew or other nuts.

Before serving slice tomatoes and decorate plates with fresh coriander or basil leaves. A dash of Balsamic vinegar over the tomatoes vibrates nicely to the rising asparagus steam...

Enjoy with Riesling or Entre-Deux-Mers
(white bordeaux grown between Garonne and Dordogne, two rivers, therefore the name)...!

A blog to share and seduce

So you're hungry? Wanna feed the girl the right thing, the good food, impress her and gorge yourself in style? Welcome!

Many a times after I plated my dinner creation (mostly improvised with seasonal foods) I thought, wow, that looks really good, other than it's very tasty and healthy, too - so this blog I am dedicating to sharing "good" recipes. The definition of "good"?

Everything that tastes great, gives the body many different nutrients in a healthy combination and seduces your senses. It's a German saying that love passes through the stomach - I'm saying: gotta eat like a rabbit if you, well, we'll leave the rest to your imagination.

Who knows how the evening's gonna end...
