Travel Inspired Five Course Menu You Can Create At Home
Updated: Mar 12
Over the years I have enjoyed many great dishes and treats from around the world, including one of my favourites Key Lime Pie. What do you do when you could just go that one thing? Yes, create it at home. I'm not a chef or a cook by any means but when the going gets tough, the tough get going. If I can do it, you can too! Here's what you need to create your five-course menu.

Travel Inspired Five Course Menu You Can Create At Home
I don't know about you but during the lockdown, I too have succumbed to baking and cooking. So glad I have. Here are some of my favourite dishes I have made, inspired by travel.
Spring Rolls - Vietnam
The national dish of Vietnam is considered to be the spring roll. One of the most popular staples believed to have originated from China. Mostly consumed in Spring with fresh vegetables, shrimp and mung beans. I love to dip mine in peanut sauce.
They make excellent entree finger food.
French Onion Soup - France
French Onion soup is not only delicious but it's so easy to make!
The modern recipe dates to the 18th century but has been said to date further back with onions easy to grow and plentyful in France.
Recipe:
15g butter
tbsp vegetable oil
750g onions peeled and thinly sliced
2tsp flour
1 litre vegetable or beef stock
Method:
Heat butter and oil in a large pan. Fry onion over a low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until caramelised. Add flour and stir for 1 minute.
Add stock and stir until smooth. Simmer for 30 minutes.
You can then add your own fresh croutons or buy some already made. Then sprinkle with your favourite cheddar cheese. Yum.
