- 1 small onion,
- 2 cloves of garlic,
- oil,
- 2 lemons,
- a few tablespoons of cream,

How to prepare:
- Grate the zest from half a lemon. Squeeze the juice from both fruits.
- Peel the onion and slice thinly. Sweat it in oil, then add crushed garlic. Pour half the lemon juice and soy sauce, and add the cream and grated lemon zest after a few minutes. Once the sauce begins to boil, lower the heat and introduce the rest of the lemon juice. Cook for a few more minutes.
