Nice little roast chicken. Now demolished!

Is there anything more tasty than a lovely roast chicken? The only things I can think of that are on a par are BBQ ribs and crispy bacon...

Plain, simple, delicious. I love a nicely done roast chicken, too.

Have you tried Poussin done this way? Perfect portion for one...

Ta.

Recipe here if you like, I just used the brisket part as I don't have a dehydrator or a deep fat fryer and not that good cook. Substituted the wagyu for some Hereford brisket from Sainsbury's fresh meat counter, that lump was only £7, took about 4 hours in the oven until you could easily prod your finger in to the tender meat. Remove it and then reduce the liquid and I also added some butter and flower mashed together to thicken it up at the end.

Quack!

I've worked in the same town as a Chinese supermarket, and not realised. Tomorrow I make the trip. Sweet and sour chicken and noodles will be my first thing I make upon my return.

I'd go for hoi sin sauce. But your duck looks absolutely delicious, with or without sauce.

Have you tried to cook it breast side down and then turn it back normal way for the last 20 mins to crisp up the skin?

It means all the moisture you would normally lose in the breast is kept there making it beautifully moist.

Morello cherry sauce takes a few minutes & is a great simple accompaniment to a duck dish like that. Not many sauces provide better bang for your buck imo.
For 2
2 dessert spoons of good quality morello cherry jam
150ml robust red wine, like shiraz
1 tsp liquid concentrate chicken stock
Just pour the wine into a pan, reduce by 50%, add the jam, reduce the heat & melt for 5 mins on a low heat. Add the liquid stock, check the seasoning.

I need to start cooking proper meals, which I have struggled to since living on my own. First attempt tonight peach and chickpea curry with cauliflower rice. Compared to others on here it looks poor, but tasted great.

Bit of surf and turf again this evening although gf don't like seafood so a whole lobster for me and a couple of small slices of fillet, she had the rest.



Was good.

No you're doing great because you're cooking stuff and that's better than 80% of people already. Looks good to me! Good work.

Slow roast shoulder of lamb with garlic, rosemary and zest of a lemon.

It was called Easter Lamb. Layers of potatoes, lamb, pecorino, parmesan, tomatoes, crushed garlic and parsley. What's not to like..... apart from gout!

Thanks.

Cooked that the other evening for the neighbours. They were seriously impressed!
Might have to do it again soon.
