Khmer Chicken Samla and Pomelo Salad
We had planned to cook rack of lamb tonight but we’re having lunch with Stephen’s sister tomorrow and she told us she’s planning to cook roast lamb. As much as we both love lamb, we didn’t want to eat it twice in a row so found ourselves in a bit of a quandary this morning […]
Read More..>>Keith Floyd’s Jambalaya
In honour of Keith Floyd, who sadly passed away this week, we thought we would cook something from his repertoire for tonight’s dinner. Not a lot of his recipes seem to exist online and many of those we found called for huge amounts of seafood which isn’t particularly in keeping with our current budget. We […]
Read More..>>Chicken Tikka Masala
Saturday night was the Last Night of the Proms and even though we never watch it, we decided to cook something typically British in honour of this long standing celebration. Chicken Tikka Masala (served with pilaf rice, in this instance) is widely reported as being Britain’s favourite dish and, since I’ve never had it before, […]
Read More..>>Roast Chicken with Boulangere Potatoes
One of the most enjoyable aspects of our week away was spending time in the kitchen, cooking with our friends. We’re all keen cooks and, although it’s incredibly immodest of me to say this about myself, all very able. This meant that over the course of the week, there were many people in the kitchen […]
Read More..>>Chicken Fajitas with Sweetcorn and Black Bean Salsa
I thought we were going out this evening but I got my dates muddled up, luckily I realised in time and defrosted some chicken breasts without much thought on what to do with them. Chicken breasts are something we’ve got used to having in the freezer but we don’t eat them much now and couldn’t […]
Read More..>>Chicken Curry
So, as you can imagine, a 2 kilo chicken generates rather a lot of leftovers. I’m not great with chicken leftovers, they scream PIE to me and unfortunately, that doesn’t fit with our current efforts to eat healthily. Admittedly, a chicken curry doesn’t automatically scream HEALTH but Stephen found a Good Food recipe that was […]
Read More..>>Salsa Verde Chicken Salad
Knowing we were going to be away this weekend, we placed an online shopping order so that we didn’t return home to an empty fridge on Sunday night. We do this every now and again and it works well but usually we stick to basics like milk and bread. This time however, Stephen was keen […]
Read More..>>Roast Chicken
We had originally decided to cook lentils this evening, but as I wasn’t feeling well Kerri decided that we needed roast chicken instead. A very good idea it was too. We do tend to have roast chicken fairly often (although not all that often recently) so do find it a little hard to think of […]
Read More..>>Barbecued Tandoori Chicken, Sag Aloo and Naan Bread
Having made something similar to sag aloo last week, we decided that far too much time has passed since we cooked any Indian food and decided to cook tandoori chicken again with some sag aloo and also have another go at naan bread. Our last attempt at naan bread was pretty much a complete disaster […]
Read More..>>Chicken Goujons
A quick dinner this evening of chicken goujons and chips (last minute decision) and salad. We simply cut two chicken breasts into strips, coated them in flour and then in egg (that had mustard mixed into it) and then coated in seasoned bread crumbs. We fried them in a little olive oil, but left them […]
