  • 2kg chicken wings I use about 24 chicken wings
  • 2 tbsp. skimmed milk powder
  • Extra Virgin Olive oil
  • 2 large onion, peeled and roughly chopped
  • 8 Large carrot, peeled and roughly chopped
  • 3 celery stalks chopped
  • 10 button mushrooms, quartered
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
  • Large Pinch of Salt – Grinding of Pepper
  • Half bottle white wine
  • Any mixed herbs you have left over or fresh of your choosing You can use dried is you wish too

Act 1

Roughly Chop all the Vegetables, place in a large roasting tin with the peeled garlic

Place Chicken wings on top

Sprinkle over the Milk Powder

Slosh over a good sprinkling of Olive oil

Salt and pepper

Place in a hot over, roast for an hour, keep checking and turning the wings so they go brown, stir the vegetables so they do not stick

Act 2

Place everything in a large stock pot, pop in the herbs and wine, cover with cold water and bring to a boil

Skim the stock until clear to get rid of all the impurities

Leave to simmer with the lid on for at least 3 hours, check the water level keeping it topped up to cover the meat

 

Act 3

Turn off the heat and strain into another large pan – crush all the wings and vegetables to release all the juices

Back on the heat to a rolling boil

Simmer and reduce to half

 

Act 4

Turn off the heat and when cold place in the fridge overnight to go very cold

 

Act 5

Next day take off all the fat, it will come off really easy

 

Act 5

Store in pots in the freezer, you will always have homemade Chicken Stock, you will never buy a cube ever again

 

You can also do the same with BEEF BONES about 10 large beef bones –  just switch the White wine to Red

If you do not wish to use Wine, just replace with more water

Enjoy Happy Cooking

Pot Roast English Style

 

  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil or Coconut
  • 4lbBeef chuck steak one chunk mine is large
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 pint beef stock
  • 1 red wine (optional)
  • 3 onions, cut into large wedges
  • 4 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 2 dried bay leaves
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Pinch Chinese 5 spice
  • Pinch Cumin
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 pounds’ carrots, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
  • Cornflower to thicken if needed

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Casserole heat oil over medium-high heat. Sprinkle roast all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place in pan, and brown on all sides, about 10 minutes.
  2. Turn meat fat side up. Add stock, wine, if using, onions, garlic, bay leaves, and thyme. Stir in tomato paste Carrots Bring to a simmer, cover; put in the oven, and roast for 4 hours. (I leave mine all day)
  3. Transfer the roast, carrots, to a platter. With a spoon, skim the fat off the surface of the cooking liquid. Cut the roast into thick slices, or shred with two folks and serve with the vegetables. I serve mine with Mashed Potatoes (I don’t like Potatoes in the pot roast)
  4. Sometimes I thicken the juices with a little cornflower and water
