I made this last night, Chicken Chasseur (Hunter's Chicken). It is quite easy apart from the sauce.

- Season chicken with salt and pepper, toss in flour, fry until golden and crispy. Set aside.
- Sauce: make a stock with chicken bones, beef stock, carrot, celery, onion, and a bouquet garni. Boil for 2-3 hours. Strain the stock and keep aside. In another saucepan, fry mushrooms in butter until coloured. Add finely chopped onion and carrot and fry until onions are translucent. Add white wine and cognac and flambee. Then add the stock. Reduce till it coats the back of a spoon. Add cream and parsley then adjust seasoning.
- Rice: fry finely diced onion with butter until translucent. Add uncooked rice + 1 tsp curry powder + 1 tsp turmeric + 1 tsp salt. When evenly coloured, cook in a rice cooker until done.

I didn’t try scotch eggs til ~5 years ago (workin a Celtic weekend event at local Ren Faire). Holy jeez so good. I’ve made em a few times. Best combo is medium-sized eggs just under hard-boiled so it’s not all chalk, wrapped in chorizo and breaded with crushed corn chips. Sour cream to top . Deep fry is good, “air fry” is better.

Keith, I was with you until you said parsley. Atrocious stuff imo. The complaints people have about coriander is nothing compared to the unpleasantness of parsley.

Silly question: What do you use to scoop the rice - a big ice cream scoop or something else?

Not him, but usually a big scoop that's closer to a giant spoon because the deep bowled shape of an ice cream scoop would compress the grains.

I use an Chinese rice bowl and a rice spoon. You scoop the rice into the bowl, press it a little to compress it, then invert it into the plate.

And for the guy who doesn't like parsley ... it's delicious!

For those who want to try this recipe, watch this video. My version had cream and carrots in it, and I added a lot more cognac.

Last year's new year's resolution was to eat healthier, so I have gone vegetarian 2 days a week and trying to reduce my meat and carb intake whilst eating more fruit and vegetables. This was my vegetarian dinner for tonight:

Spaghetti Olio e Aglio (Olive oil and garlic spaghetti).

Rocket, parmesan, and pear salad.

This dinner was really easy to make. The whole process of shopping to food on the plate was slightly less than an hour.

Is that human food or cat food? Why do you serve dinner in a pet bowl? I just think it's depressing to eat food out of a can without anything freshly cooked and call that dinner :(

@amirm will recognize these dishes. I hope that I have done your cuisine proud :)

It doesn't taste as nice as the one my friend made for me though. Maybe you could tell me what you think of the rice texture. Soaked 2 hours, boiled 10 minutes, and then cooked 45 mins in a pot undisturbed. I managed to form a nice crust and the cake didn't break all over the place when I flipped it over. Only a few bits of crust fell off.
