The aftermath of Pancake Tuesday

Pancake Tueday was a lot of fun, I ended up cooking till around half 11, there were a lot of hungry bellies to feed!!! it was one of our friends birthdays at the weekend, but as we were in Belmullet windsurfing and nowhere near civilisation we never gave hima card or a cake......so I made them for him on Pancake Tuesday night!


The following night I made a roast for my housemates, it was a very last minute thing, but I put a few things together and the chicken was the yummiest part....

1 medium chicken
6/7 Basil leaves
Rosemary
Brown sugar
pepper and chili flakes

Cover the top of the chicken with olive oil and then gently opened the space between the breast and the skin on top

cut half a lemon into two more halves then put them just under the skin

put the basil leaves in with the lemon as well

cover the top of the chicken with pepper, rosemary, chili flakes and of course, my favourite, lots of rosemary!!

Cook in the oven at 180 degrees for approx two hours, serve with some baby potatoes, brocolli and snow peas et voile!!

yum yum
