What is the perfect meal you can offer a loved one for a night in? There are a lot of options in terms of what to cook and what not to and it is difficult to find the right one. I have decided to list a few ideas for anyone out there who is considering cooking a meal for their loved one and is not sure what to prepare and how to cook it.

I started looking at recipes and ingredients on the BBC website, I have selected one in particular that I think would be good to cook for your partner. The first meal that I have selected is a vegetable and salmon bake. It will take just twenty minutes to prepare and roughly 10 or twenty minutes to cook. It is easy to do and the ingredients are quite reasonable.

Here is a step by step guide on how to cook this meal;

1. Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7
2. Place the cream in a saucepan over a medium heat, and, when warm, add the potato and leeks and bring to a simmer for 3-4 minutes.
3. Remove the cream mixture from the heat and allow to cool for a few minutes. Gradually add the egg yolks and cheese, whisking constantly until all the cheese has melted.
4. Finish it off with extra mature cheese and place back into the oven to bake for just ten minutes, or until sunny golden and cooked all the way through. Top with extra cheese and place into the oven to bake for ten minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
5. To serve, place the chives on top of the dish.

By following these guide lines properly you should be left with a lovely looking, healthy and delicious meal for both of you. Other things to think about whilst preparing a meal like this are the tableware, cutlery and glassware. Each of these items contributes to that special meal and enhances the mood.

I hope this will help and good luck! I hope you have enjoyed this recipe, happy cooking!
