Rain again and cooking

Here comes the rain so it's experiment day in the kitchen

Some of you may recall I tried the cook in the bag range a little while ago with great success. I decide to buy just the bags without the sauce mix so I could make my own mixes.
Today was the trial run.I did a couple of chicken breasts and made a ginger and lime sauce with a little honey and garlic mixed in. It turned out really nice and hit the spot served with pasta and cheddar cheese sauce.The next recipe will be for a small turkey crown joint I have so I will make something different with that,maybe cranberry and I'll throw in some mixed fruit and a drizzle of honey. That will be served with roast spuds and broccoli with all the trimmings.Dried herbs and spices really come into their own in this style of cooking.

The reason I embarked on today's trail cooking is because the rain is lashing down so I still cant get out to demolish the shed.
Some days I welcome the rain I would much rather be in the kitchen knocking recipes up than knocking a tatty old shed down.

Apart from the rain it sounds very good Mickey, always good with a little food engineering.
Here it has been almost frosty it was frosty at dawn and looking up at the stars will most likely be the same tomorrow.

That does sound nice - and these bags sound very good, especially to do the recipes like this. We'll talk about these bags later.

Sounds delicious! I might copy the ginger and lime though will omit the garlic.
Not too much rain here, just a drizzle which made for a dank Thursday. We had some heavy rain overnight though. Roll on spring time.
