Goodmorning ❣️
Nutella pancakes for breakfast and Cocktails to start the day. Chilled day at the hotel to enjoy the amenities and catch a bit of sun.

Nothing is to far from the Hôtel Le Nautile and a short drive to the coastal town of Boucan Canot was an interesting one.

Lined with restaurants to choose from, whether you looking for fancy or take away, it has a little bit for everyone. It's one of those places you just go wow. The nicest thing about Reunion which I love is that one is able to buy some cold meats,cheese, baguettes, beer and go watch the waves crash as you eat.

The lifeguard house is just infront of the swimming area, but what is also nice is that they have a protected sea pool that one can relax in, great for Adults and Kids alike.

As the sun sets, the sky is painted with some of the most striking colours, it sometimes is too beautiful to comprehend.

Time to choose our restaurant and if you haven't made a reservation it really is quite challenging to find a place, European Summer holidays Reunion is packed. We were lucky, a beautiful cosy restaurant, cocktails, wine, the bests beef burgers, tuna sashimi, melted cheese and baguettes ofcourse.. I literally wanted to lick the plate it was soooo good.

I know you will love it here. Reunion Island is such a magical place and I will always be a Sunset girl ❣️

For the LOVE of REUNION ISLAND Travel 2 Reunion

Here's a classic French recipe for "Coq au Vin," a flavorful chicken dish:

Coq au Vin

Ingredients:

1 whole chicken (about 3-4 pounds), cut into pieces
4 slices of bacon, chopped
1 onion, finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 carrot, chopped
1 celery stalk, chopped
8-10 small pearl onions, peeled
8 ounces of mushrooms, sliced
2 cups of red wine (preferably a Burgundy)
1 cup of chicken broth
2-3 sprigs of fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons of butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:

In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until it's crispy.

Remove the bacon and set it aside.
In the same pot, add the chicken pieces and brown them on all sides. Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside with the bacon.
In the same pot, add the chopped onion, garlic, carrot, and celery. Cook for about 5 minutes until they become soft and fragrant.
Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir well to create a roux. Cook for a few minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Return the chicken and bacon to the pot, and then add the red wine, chicken broth, thyme sprigs, and bay leaves. Season with salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through.

While the chicken is simmering, melt the butter in a separate pan and sauté the pearl onions and mushrooms until they are golden and tender.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot, and strain the cooking liquid into a separate saucepan. Discard the solids.

Bring the strained cooking liquid to a boil and let it reduce to your desired thickness.
Return the chicken, bacon, pearl onions, and mushrooms to the pot. Pour the reduced sauce over the ingredients and let them simmer together for a few more minutes to heat through.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.

Serve the Coq au Vin hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.

Coq au Vin is traditionally served with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad. Enjoy this classic French dish!

Out and about in St Denis, Reunion Island. So much to see and do.

24/07/2024

The island boasts exceptionally rich and varied plant life. At the heart of this lush vegetation, we find the tamarind on Les Hauts (Highlands), as well as the latanier and the screwpine, all endemic plants that make Reunion something of an earthly paradise.
To fully appreciate the diversity and learn how to identify each plant, the easiest thing is to visit one of the island’s botanical gardens.

Recipe : Chicken Chasseur

Prep :10m
Cook :1h 20m
Total : 1h 30m
Serves: 4

Ingredients
1 tsp olive oil
4 chicken legs
salt and pepper
25g butter
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
200g button mushrooms
1 carrot, peeled and sliced
225ml red wine
2 tbsp tomato purée
2 sprigs fresh thyme
500ml chicken stock (or beef stock)
1 tsp cornflour (optional)

Method
Put a large lidded saucepan or casserole dish over a medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil (I use a 6 litre saucepan).

Season 4 chicken legs with salt and pepper then fry for 5 minutes on each side until lightly golden brown. I half cover the saucepan with a lid as the fat can splatter.

Remove the chicken legs from the saucepan and place to one side.

Add 25g of butter to the saucepan and fry 1 chopped onion for 5 minutes.

Add 3 chopped garlic cloves and fry until the garlic starts to colour then add 200g of button mushrooms and 1 sliced carrot.

Cook for another 2 minutes then add 225ml of red wine and 2 tablespoons of tomato purée. Stir well.

Once the liquid bubbles, simmer for 5 minutes then add 2 thyme sprigs and 500ml of chicken stock.

Add the chicken legs back into the saucepan, cover with a lid (I leave a tiny gap) and simmer for 1 hour.

After an hour, remove the chicken legs from the pan and optionally place under a hot grill for 5 minutes, skin side up, to crisp the skin.

Turn the heat under the saucepan up high (keeping the lid off) and boil rapidly for around 10 minutes until the sauce reduces and thickens.

If you want to thicken the sauce more, mix 1 teaspoon of cornflour with 1 teaspoon of water, add to the saucepan and cook for a few more minutes.

Place a chicken leg on each plate, pour over the sauce and serve with potatoes, greens and bread.

Réunion Island, a French department in the Indian Ocean, is known for its volcanic, rainforested interior, coral reefs and beaches. Its most iconic landmark is Piton de la Fournaise, a climbable active volcano standing 2,632m (8,635 ft.). Piton des Neiges, a massive extinct volcano, and Réunion’s 3 calderas (natural amphitheaters formed by collapsed volcanoes), are also climbing destinations.
