I can not remember when exactly my bear behaviour started, but in the winter, apart from doing outside sports and going for long walks; I have never really enjoyed socialising outside. I love giving myself the permission to stay at home during the cold days to expand in any way possible ( yes, even the food way). So I am not sure why I have felt so surprised since i got back to London that I did not feel for venturing outside apart from going to my life painting class. But somehow I seem to have woken up now, even though it is still only February so hopefully there will soon be some interesting postings on this blog. In the meantime a recipe cooked in my dungeon today:
Herbchicken with roasted vegetables for 4-5 people
4-5 frozen big chicken fillets
2 middle sized red onions
7 peeled garlics
3 carrots, cut lengthways into pieces
2 peppers, cut into pieces
Some potatoes and sweet potatoes cut into pieces. Peeled or unpeeled it is how you like it.
1 tbsp dried thyme
2 teaspoons of rosemary
3 decilitres of white wine
10 Black olives ( not a must)
Heat the oven to 200 degrees.
Coat an oven dish with olive oil. Fill it with the frozen chicken fillets, the vegetables, the olives, garlic and all the potatoes. Pour about 2 teaspoons of salt on top,quite a lot of black pepper and the dried herbs. Pour the wine and 2 tablespoons of olive oil over everything. Let it stand in the oven for 60 min. Turn the heating down a bit the last 10 min.
Serve with a salad made of baby spinach, watercress, pomegranate and some crumbled goat cheese. Top the salad with a vinagrette made of 2/3 part white balsamic vinegar, 1/3 parts olive oil, 2 garlics and half a teaspoon of french mustard, all mixed together.
Drinking cold drinks is not the best for digestion so I try to drink herbal tea with hot food. Today I had aa "yogi tea". On the teabag holder is printed: Oneness is achieved by recognising yourself - Last thought of the day. Good night.
