        awww, ok (you did say two different things)
        
        try roasting the leeks with bacon wrapped around them for starters and then for main just roast the shit out of that chicken and eat it with veg

      I'll be quite literally not in London
      
      Royter-Hatfood @cocodaLOL | 8 Jul '13, 18:23 | X
is this like ready steady cook?

I would leave the sprouts out of it, not in this weather.

Starter- chicken and leek terrine (you could even add bacon to this or use it to wrap around the side of the terrine.) let me have a think about main. I'm so much better at coming up with starters than mains.

PickledOeuf | 8 Jul '13, 17:28 | X
- this is exactly like ready steady cook
  
  and the terrine is a good idea
  
  cocodaLOL @PickledOeuf | 8 Jul '13, 17:35 | X
  - i THINK YOUR MAIN COURSE NEEDS TO BE BUTTERBEANS. jUST BUTTERBEANS.
    
    PickledOeuf @cocodaLOL | 8 Jul '13, 17:48 | X
    - this in capitals has now done me completely
      
      cocodaLOL @PickledOeuf | 8 Jul '13, 17:50 | X
do you have a food processor?

Epimer | 8 Jul '13, 17:28 | X
- yes
  
  one that even cooks the food after blending it :o
  
  cocodaLOL @Epimer | 8 Jul '13, 17:37 | X
  - then my suggestion is a smoothie
    
    (a smaller portion for the starter)
    
    Epimer @cocodaLOL | 8 Jul '13, 17:45 | X
OKAY MAN, LET'S DO THIS

Okay, just do as follows and you'll be okay:

1. Grate 100g of leeks into a tupperware tub.
2. Put 250g of butter beans into a blender and blend until it's like a fine paste.
3. Now flash fry the sprots whole and ensure that you've got a nice black layer around them, but they're very crunchy on the inside.
4. Boil the kettle for four minutes, then pour the boiling water into a bowl. Put a plate above the bowl with 35g of cranberries on.
5. Cut the chicken into shark shaped pieces with a pair of scissors (too difficult with a knife) and put these under a grill at 250 degrees celcius.
6. This is the clever part. Take the skin off the onion whole and wrap all the bacon you have around it so none of the onion is showing. Put this in a preheated oven at 200 degrees celcius for 70 minutes.
7. Once the bacon onion is done, place it on a bed of the blended butter beans. Surround it by the burnt sprots on the plate. Balance the cranberries on top of the bacon/onion hybrid. Full a side dish with ketchup and put the chicken in there too, this will make a wonderful side / dip combo to have with it.

Bon appetit!

  Put them back in the fridge.

Chicken Ala King

Jordan_229_2 | 8 Jul '13, 17:30 | X
some sort of stewy thing with

chicken, beans, leeks, onion and leeks might not be too bad. add some white wine, chicken stock and uh lemon? i dunno

the starter can go fuck itself the bourgeious twat

anal_schwarzenegger | 8 Jul '13, 17:42 | X
- i like your spirit
  
  while abhorring your execution, sir
  
  cocodaLOL @anal_schwarzenegger | 8 Jul '13, 17:44 | X
make a little quiche thing for starter (can't remember their actual name)

then some chicken thing with the leftover ingredients for main

japes | 8 Jul '13, 17:46 | X
- quiche is a great shout also
  
  hmmm i could double up to make terrine and quiche
  
  cocodaLOL @japes | 8 Jul '13, 17:47 | X
  - I'd go one or the other there like
    
    texture is too similar, innit
    
    japes @cocodaLOL | 8 Jul '13, 17:50 | X
    
    cocodaLOL this'd this
just eat some chicken

mute-branches | 8 Jul '13, 17:48 | X
- worst suggestion yet
  
  anal_schwarzenegger @mute-branches | 8 Jul '13, 17:50 | X
  
  mute-branches, Jordan_229_2, and the_dazzled this'd this
  - I'll one-up myself
    
    don't even cook the chicken just eat it out the packet
    
    mute-branches @anal_schwarzenegger | 8 Jul '13, 18:30 | X
apologies in advance for the serious answer

But I once made a grated sprout carbonara. You've got the bacon. Go for it.

Keep hold of the cranberries they're redundant

Smee | 8 Jul '13, 18:29 | X
- what I would do with the cranberries is to recreate an old recipe (in fact Jess R stole it from the Ivy!)- freeze the berries
  
  then put in a bowl about 5 mins before you want to serve. then melt 100g white chocolate and 100 ml dluble cream per person in a bain marie. Pour sauce over berries.
  This recipe we like to call Spunky Berries.
