Sauce of the Month

Some years ago, we experimented with cooking chicken pieces in different flavoured sauces. There was one sauce which we liked so much that it received the accolade of becoming our permanent Sauce of the Month. We don’t use the sauce on a monthly basis – but the whole family knows what it means when we say that we’ve got Sauce of the Month for dinner.

And Sauce of the Month is made up of variable quantities of sieved tomatoes, creme fraiche and tarragon. Go on, try it – it’s delicious!

Sunday lunchtime

Sunday lunch is a great occasion each week. Margie and I enjoy sharing lunch with Hannah and Chris, and with Debz of course. We don’t normally have time to cook a roast, and we occasionally use the opportunity to experiment.

We had one such experiment this week. For each of us I wrapped a sausage with a rasher of smoked bacon, which I wrapped in a slice of turkey breast, and then I covered each of the parcels of meat with stuffing. Cooked with a little red wine, it was delicious. We served it with roasted vegetables and red cabbage cooked with apple and onion.
