ROAST CHICKEN DINNER

ROAST CHICKEN

It is actually very easy to prepare, as long as you do it with the right timing too. These days so many thing are well prepared in store and you can just buy them. perhaps if you want to mix and match do that too. I never base my cooking specific with any recipes. I like to be more creative, imaginative but my food still taste nice, well acceptable to people who are not fussy.

Ingredients :

• 1 whole chicken, size depending on the number of people you want to feed.
• Selection of vegetables, potatoes, carrots, broccolli or even parsnip for some who likes them.
• ready to bake batter aunt betsy yorshire pudding or make yourself the batter. see recipes for yorshire pudding.
• Ready to make gravy and use some of dripping from the chicken. remove the fats before putting the dripping to mix with tin gravy.
• salt and pepper , all seasoning powder, olive oil and ready stuffing

How to make :

• heat the oven 200 degree C.

• clean and chopped all vegetables. boil potatoes first and parsnip then when its a little bit soft drain them and put in oven tray then pour the olive oil and all seasoning powder and tossed then put into oven ( keep tossing them every now and then )when chicken almost cooked.
• boil the rest of the veg just before the chicken ready.
• in between you have to take out the chicken to pour the exceess dripping onto the chicken to keep it moist. after 1 hour take the foil out then cook for further 1/2 hour to get the roast looking, brown on top.
• at the same time after you take the foil off, put the yorshire pudding in the oven until its ready.
