Hello everybody.
This recipe always pops in front of me either on TV or online and I’ve been eager to make it cause of many reasons, first of all is that Jamie Oliver is one of my favorite chefs, love his way of cooking,you can feel how much he loves his work,very energetic and creative, second reason is I always felt this recipe is different and must be delicious cause of rich aromatic ingredients.
Ingredients and method :
* one whole chicken.
* 1 stick cinnamon.
* handful of fresh sage ( I used rosemary and oregano instead)
* zest of two lemons.
* 10 cloves garlic, skin on.
* sea salt, fresh ground pepper.
* one liter milk.
* Preheat oven to medium.
* in a deep pan that’ll fit the whole chicken heat some olive oil then season it well and fry it from all sides till golden.
* remove chicken and throw away oil left in pan.
* put it back and add all ingredients.
* cover and cook in the oven for 1 1/2 hours, uncover in last half hour.
Lemon zest will split the milk making a delicious sauce with curd.
Serve with potatoes or rice,today I made Iranian rice.

Hello everybody.
Today’s order was various, date cookies, ginger crinkles, sable and a chocolate cake.
Well the cake was the usual one I always do but I kind of decorated it differently, inside and cover were ganache with some crunch and hazelnuts.As for the top I used button white and dark chocolate with other shapes to make flowers. Not exactly same as original one I saw but close enough.
I also made a chicken pie, really good I even made another one for lunch.
Tomorrow I’ll start working on Christmas orders.
Hello everybody.
Stuffed two big cabbages for lunch today and hopefully tomorrow.
This time I tried this sauce I always wanted to do from my Greek cookbook but hesitate cause it contains too much eggs in it, I’m not a big fan by the way.
Well today I took the venture but omitted the eggs, recipe has flour to thicken the sauce so I guessed it’ll be enough and result was amazing, really yummy.
Ingredients and method :
*1 tablespoon butter.
* 1 tablespoon flour.
* 1 1/2 cup broth from cooked cabbages.
* 2 tsp lemon juice.
* salt and pepper to taste.
* heat butter well then add flour and wisk till it’s golden.
* add broth gradually and keep on whisking till you have a thick creamy sauce.
* add lemon juice, salt and pepper.
* serve over cabbages when done.
