Chicken Roast Dinner

With this recipe - not only to you get a full meal, you also will be able to make chicken broth out of the bones and any leftover vegetables can be turned into a delicious ROAST VEGETABLE SOUP.

 My favourite way to cook a chicken is a ''pot roast''. I brown the chicken first in the dish I am cooking the chicken in. I then add the vegetables and herbs. Cover and cook.

I love spices, the flavour of this chicken is so good. Even your kids will love it. It is good to start teaching your children to love flavours, talk about them and even have them smell them raw.

Best to buy chicken with no hormones added and free range.

Vietnamese Pancakes - GF

If you need a fun meal to share with family and friends this is the one. All the dishes are on the table and you all just need to make your own. No stress, easy meal, and did I say healthy, well of course it is :)

I love my recipe for the wraps. I have used it a lot on realfoodnow.nz. In summer I would keep the mixture for two days in the fridge and fry them up fresh. You can freeze them but it is not quite the same.

I love cooking a chicken this way. In the past I have used a slow cooker, but I find the chicken nicer this way. The flavour is really intense and the small amount of liquid that comes from the chicken is delicious poured over the chicken once it is cut into pieces.
