To all of you who are looking for a simple recipe to celebrate mother's day. This menu is pretty simple and and easy to make. Cornish hen is very tasty enough when you simply roasted in the oven with just a simple seasoning like salt and pepper. But, if you want to make it even more delicious, you can always be more creative by stuffing the hen with some fruit, or vegetable. For this special occasion, why not stuffed the hen with something sweet like dried fig for example. Make it even sweeter with pomegranate molasses, and add more crunch with healthy walnuts. For side dish, is easy. Since this roasted hens is pretty mild, I think it is also delicious serve with Imam Bayildi. For those who never tried this eggplant dish, I can assure you that you will be swooning and perhaps even fainted just like the story behind this moreish eggplant dish. The Imam (the head of moslem leader) was fainted after tasting it, although no one sure wether the Imam fainted after knew how much olive oil was in the dish, or it was just plain delicious. And you must have carb to go with this meal right? I, personally like rice, but you can always serve Couscous (plain, or pilaf), Manoushi bread will be good too, or any other flat bread of your choice.
Don't forget to save some room for dessert. Because, having a delicious meal wouldn't be prefect without dessert. You can make it as simple as you like, but I like to be a bit more special, after all, this is a special day for the most wonderful caring person on earth right? Spare a little time of making delicious, sweet and fragrant chocolate layer cake. Riviera is one of this example. It's so pretty to look at, and your mom will be swooning and full of bliss on how delicious this Riviera is. The lemon cream and chocolate mousse are delicate, velvety sweet and tangy, and not to forget the ganache is almost always everyone's favorite. I hope you like this menu idea.
Happy Mother's Day to all mothers out there. May your heart fill with joy and happiness!.

Awesome post ♥
I always think that Cornish hens are such a splurge and never find the right occasion to make them. Nice to be reminded with this lovely meal with a Mediterranean flair.
Perfect menu, Elra... too bad my Mom is 6 thousand miiles away, so a phone call is all I can have.
Happy Mother's Day to you!
I was excited when I found Sumac in my neck of the woods. This is an enticing menu for Mothers Day. Have a wonderful day!!!
