The way that you do…

You may recall that I mentioned, in an earlier post, that Melissa and I loved the roast chicken…

…that we had at this place in Kuching when we were there for a quick weekend break. Of course we did have the slightest inkling as to how to go about cooking it but obviously, they used a lot of herbs and other than that, I did spot a few slices of lemon in the bird.

Coincidentally, my Singapore blogger-friend blogged about the roast whole chicken that he cooked and shared his very comprehensive recipe and so, I printed that out for my girl and the mum to follow. I don’t know if they followed it to the letter or whether they made some adjustments here and there but this was the end result…

…and I would say that it tasted absolutely great – maybe it could do with a bit more of the herbs but it was really good. I did hear my missus mention in passing that she did reduce the amount used in case the “smell” would be too strong. Hmmmm….I think I would love it even more had the fragrance been stronger so I would insist on the whole works when we roast one for Christmas – she did say she would want to do that when the festive season comes around and she would get a bigger bird for that and serve that instead of turkey as she isn’t all that fond of the meat.

Well, we’ve done it, chefandsommelier, and we did enjoy our very delightful lunch that day – thanks so much for sharing. Now, let me browse through your blog slowly and see what else we can try cooking… Hehehehehe!!!!!!
