Mamma Mia!

As much as we love dedicating the day to Mommie dearest, this year's Mother's day was more of an excuse to sample some Haute Cuisine recipes we had bubbling in our broiler. Rather than a midday feast, we opted for a lighter yet still satisfying combination of flavours. Our main dish was a refreshing Lemon Glazed Salmon Filet, with a side of Roast New Potatoes, Boiled Asparagus and a tangy Mustard Cream Sauce. The Hors d'œuvre consisted of Puff Pastry, Roast Leeks, Goat's Cheese and Thyme. And the dessert was a delectable Moist Sour Cream Coffee Cake. All three dishes were successful, so we posted the recipes below, as well as pictures of our meal.
