ChiFlyer Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 The FNG (me) (the NG stands for New Guy) has a suggestion. I think it might be best to have separate threads about home cooking vs restaurant offerings. As usual the FNG has no idea about how best to approach accomplish this, providing others agree that this is a decent idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiFlyer Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Home Cooking Recipe 2 - Forty Cloves Chicken This is a long standing favorite recipe of mine, which I made again recently. I have made several versions from various cooking show luminaries, but have found Ina Garten's version to be the most direct and still very flavorful. https://barefootcontessa.com/recipes/chicken-with-forty-cloves-of-garlic Some things to make sure to observe about this recipe are: Blanch the garlic cloves for one minute before peeling the garlic. The best way to peel the garlic IMO is to cut off the root end, give the clove a light smash with a lesser knife, and the peel it. One should be able to peel the garlic in 15 minutes this way. Pad the chicken with paper towels several times. This will give you a crisper skin from the browning process. Also I use 8 bone-in chicken thighs for this recipe. IMO this section of the chicken is the most moist and flavorful for this recipe I really like serving this dish over couscous. I think the sauce and couscous work very well together. My recipe for the couscous is: Follow the recipe for the couscous package, which is usually add some salt, and olive oil to water. Bring the liquid to a boil, turn off heat, add couscous, and cover for 5 minutes. Then fluff with a fork. A better description with regard to volumes is provided in a link below. I use homemade chicken broth instead of water. I also bring a small dish of water to a boil, turn off heat and add a goodly pinch of saffron threads. At the point where the chicken broth liquid has the heat turned off, I add the saffron liquid, couscous, 1/2 cup of golden raisins, and 1/2 cup of chopped pecans. Worth the effort IMO.

Popular Post Butch Posted June 10, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) Yesterday and today we've been in London, the Mrs had to attend the Royal college of Physicians to give part of a lecture about stuff. Found a cracking little Thai eaterie near Camden Lock, Tom Yam Gai for £8 ehich I thought was ghood value, Mrs had a mixture of noodles, chicken and beef for £10. It's called "Pho Kae" and is just up from Camden Street Tube Station as you walk towards the Lock. Run by a Thai lady it seems, she also does the cooking and she is bloody good. This evening I've done my version of Plan Neung Manao using Sea Bream, grilled asparagus with Parmesan and broccoli done in the air fryer with salt and vinegar.
