Nigel Slater - Grilled Mustard & Herb Chicken

Review: Full on 5 stars for this one! It was excellent. Super tasty, skin was crispy and the meat was moist, pure deliciousness.
Quick to make and prep, although you do need to either marinade overnight in the fridge the night before or do it a couple of hours in advance. I did mine this morning after realising that it needed doing. I had already asked my butcher to remove the bones from the thighs so it made it a lot quicker. Basically chuck it all in a bowl, quick mix, cover and leave.
I cooked mine 4 mins each side as per recipe but they needed another 2 mins a side longer as my thighs were fat. LOL.
My husband was supposed to be having this for tea with me, so me being me, trying to be like super mega efficient (still in my outdoor gardening gear, I'll have you know), I went on iPhone Find Friends app as he had text me he was on the way home. So I looked and saw he was about 10 minutes away from home so I thought "great, I'll get the chicken in the pan"...2 minutes later...phone rings...husband is now delayed having had to turn around and go back to Burnley till around 7pm, so he will be having his chicken cold. Bet its still just as good though!
Aga conversion: I heated my aga griddle roasting pan on the floor of the roasting oven for 5 mins before putting on the boiling plate to make it super hot. There was lots and I mean lots of spitting so you might want to put one of those spatter cover thingies over your boiling plate lid.
Will I make this again? Yes definitely.

Took 40 mins to make so not an overly quick recipe but wow what a taste! I used plain pork sausages from my local butchers (Pitts in Earby as he makes the best pork sausages 💕). I made a half portion (serves 3) on the sauce and have set aside the extra portion for freezing and only made a third of the pasta as I’m serving 2. Used 1 cayenne chilli and didn’t deseed as we like extra heat. So so tasty. This recipe does not disappoint. Will I make this again?

Paul Hollywood - Crumpets

Review: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 So, I got up early on Sunday and decided to have a go at these. They did not disappoint. I was surprised how easy they are to make, but you do need to have some crumpet rings or egg rings available to make them...and I did! I'd bought some of these Professional Egg Rings from Amazon and just took off the handles. They worked a treat. Oh how soft and tasty these crumpets are especially with some lovely Longley Farm Butter on top...💖 Mmmmmmm. Anyway, back to the review at hand. My egg rings are only 2cm deep and I did follow the instructions to fill to just below the top, but they still overflowed so I would advise filling to 1.5cm full to allow rising room! On my Aga (DC3) simmering plate my timing were about 7 minutes on the first side and then 2-3 minutes on the tops. I didn't eat them all on Sunday, but they were good enough to eat all of them so I have frozen 6 in a freezer bag. I toasted a couple of the fresh ones on Monday morning and they were perf
