HAPPY MOTHERS' DAY

ADD SOME SPICE TO YOUR CHICKEN

You don't need any fancy labeled sauces for this simple recipe. Please read through first. I did not check the weight but here it goes: You will need (for a family of 4):

• 6 medium sized chicken thighs
• 2 peeled plum tomatoes in juice
• 1 large red Spanish onion
• 4 cloves of garlic
• 1 tsp coriander powder
• 1 tsp sunflower oil
• 3/4 tsp of fennel seeds
• salt to taste

Wash the chicken thoroughly, pat dry and cook for 10 minutes in a preheated oven at gas mark 7. Blend all the ingredients together and pour over the chicken. Cook for a further 45 minutes, turning over every 15 minutes. Serve with boiled skinned potatoes and salad. The juices from the chicken can be used to dress the salad. Buon appetit NOTES: I used sunflower as I did not want the oil to overpower the taste of the spices. Don't use too much fennel seeds as this can end up being bitter

EXPERIMENTING!!!

This afternoon, I decided to experiment with this simple recipe I came up with which (fingers crossed) will help deodorise the fridge. I will post my results later but feel free to try it yourself.

INGREDIENTS:

25g sodium bicarbonate

7g essential oils (I had a premixed bottle of French lavender & English eucalyptus)

5g activated charcoal

5g kaolin

Mix all the dry ingredients together. Add the essential oils and stir till you get the "bread crumb" effect.

I used a powder shaker to hold the mix. Don't forget to label the container!

GHANA AYEKOO!
