(This comes from my dear friend that so generously is teaching me how to cook intelligently). I cut the ingredients in pieces and that also reduce the cooking time to 15 min.

To attract the girls I made some croutons, and fried some bacon .
Instead of salt I used a fish sauce called nuoc mam, that gives just a bit of umami flavor. A dollop of cream did it a lot of good.

So Iridal. Success.
Ho, ho...is that a glass of red wine?
