Without even realising I almost did my BDRSC last night

I did Durz's spuds but they didn't fan out either. This was the only bit that was planned...

I didn't have chicken but I bought a massive bag of turkey breasts from the reduced section and freezed them. I slit one of them open and stuffed it with some scrap feta and a pinch of chilli flakes. I poached that in a little butter for a few minutes to add colour then transferred to the oven for 15 mins.

I made a ratatouille with half a leftover onion, half a leftover green pepper, a clove of garlic, a courgette and a tin of economy chopped tomatoes. Salt and pepper. Let that bubble down for half an hour.

I was impressed with my effort with scraps

No pics for me, but I quite like chicken breasts with green pesto and mozzarella - same as usual really, fry the chicken breasts then put a chunk of mozzarella on top and let it melt, add the pesto and you end up with a pestoey/mozzarellaey sauce which seems to compliment the chicken quite well

So here is my bash which in hindsight is a mixture of Drz's cooking in wine and others' wrapping in the bacon like stuff

I thought I would do something different with the potato too...potato and bacon croquettes.



1) So I blended some crusts of a loaf of bread to get breadcrumbs.
2) I mixed some cheddar cheese with one Garlic butter portion and stuffed this into the chicken breasts.
3) I made the mash potato and added a yolk to the mixture... fried one of the bacon rashers and sliced it up into tiny pieces and added to mashed potato... add some flour if its too creamy as you have to be able to mould the croquettes. When moulded put in fridge for 30mins
4) Cook the stuffed breasts in the wine (no fat). I then put these on a baking sheet in the oven to keep warm/cook throughout.
5) Then I beat an egg. Rolled the croquettes in egg mixture and then breadcrumbs and then deep fried into hot oil (I don't really like deep frying, but for the first try I thought it would be the best way ) then after the croquette is golden brown drain the oil on kitchen towel (then I bunged in oven with the rest to keep warm while I fried the others).



Served with salad because I cba to do any veg after all that faffing (sorry Loz)

Deep frying = so naughty but they tasted bloody brilliant!!!

Sorry about the pic quality... need to sort that out somehow...
