Roast Chicken and Other Stories: Second Helpings

By Simon Hopkinson, Flo Bayley
Macmillan - 2001

Next to this recipe in the book, I have written 'yum, yum, yum'. Simple, quick and delicious!

Tasty. Not sure how braising veg with white pepper and wine always ends up with a parmesan-y taste...

Good way to use up fresh herbs. Vegetarian.

Good. Could try the gingery sponge on its own?

This is a delicious spicy soup, very simple to cook. I added a handful of red lentils and some cooked rice to make it a bit more substantial.

Unusual risotto using pea shoots. I would recommend adding them about halfway through the cooking, rather than from the very start as suggested in the recipe. I liked this, but it seems a shame to have peashoots (which are not easy to buy in the UK) and not to stir-fry them!

An unusual but delicious sauce (for pasta) made with sausagemeat and chicken livers. Nicer if you leave the meat a little coarse.

(I couldn't find smoked haddock in the supermarket so used smoked mackerel.) Very nice! The last 5 ingredients are probably optional.

Coconut milk is NOT a good addition to a dhal recipe - much too rich. I liked the fresh mint added at the end, though.

Delicious, and very simple to make.
