JohnGalway 1,043 Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 (edited) http://www.bbcgoodfo...acon-cacciatore Didn't follow the recipe to the letter. I used most of a small bottle of white wine instead of vinnegar. I didn't put in 500ml of stock, rather just dissolved the cube into the bottom of a cup of hot water - otherwise it'll be WAYY too watery. I've added sliced mushrooms and chopped celery. No point in using chicken with skin on it, as it'll just go soggy, so I used chicken breasts (I put in 6 which I cut into thirds, but 8 - 10 would be better. Cooked it all on a grill pan, covered it with tinfoil and left it simmer for a good hour and a half, melt in the mouth stuff. Oh yes, even though I left out the 500ml of water, the sauce was still too thin. So I stirred in 3-4 heaped table spoons of cornflour in stages to thicken it. http://www.bordbia.i.../colcannan.aspx Again didn't totally follow the recipe. Can't say how much savoy cabbage I added, just attacked the head I had, boiled it for an hour and stirred it into the mash. Also I put in a heaped tablespoon of wholegrain mustard, I'd have put in more except the kids would have had a fit lol. If the spuds start melting or look very wet, spread them up the sides of the colander when straining and let them steam for a few minutes, then turn them over and leave them steam for another few minutes. I had two servings, fractured myself eating, lol, am fit for more now but none left! Edited November 22, 2012 by JohnGalway 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
