food recipe

D I R E C T I O N S

• Heat rice, sugar, salt, 2 cups (500 mL) of milk and the coconut milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Cut vanilla bean in half lengthwise and scrape seeds out; add seeds and pod to saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 25 minutes, stirring frequently, or until rice is tender and mixture has thickened.

Scrape mixture into bowl and place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding. Place bowl in a larger bowl filled with ice and water; let cool 15 minutes.

• Meanwhile, toast coconut in small frying pan over medium-low heat, stirring until golden and fragrant, about 4 minutes. Let cool.

Try Filippou's four great tips to make sure the food you serve and the atmosphere you create are as memorable as the company you share them with.

SERVE COOL UNDILUTED DRINKSDon't make the mistake of serving too much ice - nobody likes a watered-down drink. Use environmentally-friendly reusable ice cubes that can easily be found in the seasonal housewares section of most retail stores.

SET THE MOODPut on some tunes that your guests or date are sure to enjoy. Make sure you ask around to get a feel for the different tastes in music so you can prepare the perfect playlist. Nice tunes, some great company and summer night dining will create the perfect setting for a truly memorable evening. >>>

uring the summer, everyone always prefers to be outside, and evenings are no exception. Whether you're seeing all the stars in the night sky at the cottage or experiencing the lights and sounds of the city, there's something particularly magical and romantic about being outdoors after the sun sets. The warm, open air is also the perfect setting for al fresco dining. Skip the pricey patios and invite loved ones over for some inspired summer entertaining. “Outdoor dining gives you the perfect opportunity to explore extraordinary food with your dinner guests,” says Tom Filippou, Executive Chef for President's Choice Cooking School.

SPEND MORE TIME WITH GUESTSThe last thing you want to do when entertaining is hide out in the kitchen while your guests enjoy the party outside. So cut down on food prep by serving delicious but simple appetizers like tortilla chips with fresh PC Pico de Gallo Mild Salsa made with chopped tomatoes, onions, cilantro, fresh serranos, salt and key lime juice.

DON'T FORGET THE CITRONELLAThe only thing you want your guests to leave your party with are full bellies, not bug bites. So make sure you keep out unwanted visitors like pesky mosquitos with citronella lamps or candles. The added lights also help create a great ambience that just might make your guests believe they're on a tropical island on a late summer night.

Find inspiration on some great dishes to go along with these tips online at pc.ca THN

I have been selling real estate in Toronto since 2003 and without a doubt I have found my calling. When you love what you do, it isn't work. There are so many aspects to selling real estate that I love but first and foremost, it is my clients. I am a people person and love the personal interaction and connections that I form with my clients. It is so much more rewarding than a SOLD sign.When assisting buyers, there is absolutely nothing more rewarding than helping them find their dream home. And when I assist sellers, the reward comes in being able to achieve a profit for them they never thought possible. I believe that a home is where you live, love and grow and I will not let you make a bad decision. It's too important. I have put together a team of professionals that work along side me in order to achieve this. I strive to make the process of buying and/or selling a home as stress-free for you as possible.I believe strongly in charity work and giving back to the community and I put almost all of my fundrais-ing energy in to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. I also donate a portion of every sale to the Children's Miracle Network and am a major sponsor at my two daughters' school.I believe that if you do the job right, if you do it with passion and integrity, your clients will be thrilled and that is the best advertisement of all. I have earned a spot in the top 1% of all RE/MAX Realtors in Canada based almost solely on referrals and word of mouth. There is no greater compliment or honour than clients referring me to their family and friends. I am grateful for the trust and respect.
