\u201cA Recipe of Perfection\u201d<\/p>\n

By Dannie & Yiannie<\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/p>\n

Using the most peaceful and beautiful landscape of the world<\/p>\n

Begin by never-ending blueness of ocean,<\/p>\n

Adding plenty of fine and silky – almost silver sand.<\/p>\n

Break into this a perfectly rounded golden sun<\/p>\n

That sets below the blue horizon<\/p>\n

Leaving a rose-petal and lavender sky.<\/p>\n

For tradition, gently stir in pinches of native flavours<\/p>\n

Imperative to any recipe of perfection –<\/p>\n

Robust colours of red earth, black vanilla pods<\/p>\n

Leaf shaped coconut biscuits \u2013 \u201cbonbon coco\u201d<\/p>\n

And a community life abundant with smiles and songs.<\/p>\n

Sieve into this a large tablespoon of Western individuals –<\/p>\n

Mixed nuts of origin and profession<\/p>\n

When these are crushed together under one \u201cNosy Cao\u201d<\/p>\n

They provide the salt required to nurture this recipe\u2019s pureness.<\/p>\n

After mixing well, finally heat the mixture for no less than three weeks.<\/p>\n

While the flavours bind and work together<\/p>\n

Serve on a night like tonight –<\/p>\n

With a full moon of pearly white<\/p>\n

A perfect garnish to a culinary delight.<\/p>\n
