Chapter 502 - Kitchen Buddies (2/2)
”The one you made on Timothy's birthday?” J wanted to confirm because she loves Diana's Creamy Mushroom Pasta.
”Yup! Timothy loves it and it turns out Leo likes it as well.”
”Hmm... Okay.” J has nothing against it. In fact, she has nothing against pasta. Pasta and seafood are her weakness. Well of course, except for Jacob.
She helped Diana cut the crimini mushrooms that she will be using for the pasta.
Since they will be serving steak, there should be potatoes. So while Diana is doing her Creamy Mushroom Pasta, J prepared her potato Savoyard. It was a french dish, a gratin to be exact that J learned to cook when she was experimenting in different dishes while living alone abroad.
It only took her 15 minutes to slice the potatoes, seasoned it and then topped it with a generous amount of cheese. She put it in the oven and then will bake it for 45 minutes.
Diana is almost done with her pasta, so J started to grill the filet mignon that she already wrapped with bacon.
When Diana is done with her pasta, she took out the scallops in the ref and put it in the oven. Only one dish is left and that is roasted asparagus. Diana roast it since J is busy with grilling the steak.
”God, I forgot about dessert.” J was into cooking that she forgot about it. When she was at Hellebore with Jacob, she regretted it that she wasn't able to cook anything for them because Madam Kelly wants that it was only her to do all the cooking. She, Leticia and Lily was just her sous chefs at that time.
Although J was able to cook breakfast and dinner for Jacob even thou they already have Lulu back at Evergreen Villa, she still wanted to cook something special for him and her family during holidays.
”Don't worry about that, I've already made Chocolate Mousse ahead of time.” Diana winked at her. Desserts are her specialty. She already made Chocolate Mousse in the morning while J hasn't arrived yet.
J and Diana were having a good time at the kitchen when Jacob take a peek. He doesn't want to interrupt J who looked deeply engaged into cooking. He has never seen J interacted with anyone before like she did now with Diana. They were like best buddies in the kitchen.
