  • Chop the herbs(onion, carrots, ginger, garlic, scotch bonnet & tomato) and blend smoothly.
  • To marinate the chicken;
  • Add the cubed chicken, thyme, salt, a mixture of bbq sauce, mayonnaise & mustard, honey, a portion of the blended herbs, oil, and mix thoroughly.
  • To Build flavor for the sauce; Add butter into a hot pot, then add chicken bones, fresh thyme, the blended mix, water, and slow cook for 15mins.
  • Filter the bones out and preserve the liquid(broth) which is packed with flavors from all the ingredients added.
  • Add butter into a hot pan and fry the chicken till it has a brownish crust and filter it into a bowl.  The butter used to fry the chicken has lots of flavors stores in as well so beware to preserve it.
  • In a hot pot, add the extracted broth & butter(used to fry the chicken).
  • Add cooking cream, honey, salt & slightly mix before slow cooking it for another 10mins.
  • To thicken and sweeten the sauce; In a separate pot, boil the sweet potato with thyme, salt, butter, and slow cook.
  • When it’s softened, use a wooden spoon to mash it smoothly.
  • Then grate it into the slow-cooked sauce and mix thoroughly.
  • Add the fried chicken into the sauce and mix.
  • After 10 mins, turn the heat off and add any crunch of your choice. In this recipe, we utilized Blueberries to modify the taste which gave it a balanced flavor.
  • Serve hot and enjoy.
  • grate carrots and sprinkle on the dish after serving.
  • Even better if you have a glass of wine alongside.

 

Note :

  • if you prefer a light version of the soup, add more water to your satisfaction and slow cook for a longer period.
  • It’s best to cook on low heat to allow a proper blend of all the ingredients.
  • kindly comment on your suggestions, techniques, and feedback if the recipe was great for you.

Exclusive Recipes For Kids

When your kids start showing an interest in cooking, you’ll love these cooking recipes for kids to make on their own. With easy, straightforward directions and minimum use of kitchen tools, your kids are going to love the kitchen.

It seems to be a struggle for some and easy for others. The goal: get your kids to eat awesome, healthy, nourishing, and delicious food. Where does the struggle start? Are parents giving too many options? Not enough? Given that kids won’t self-starve, if we can be consistent with food introductions, invite them into the kitchen to cook with us and offer education about why we choose the foods we choose, perhaps we’ll have more success.

To help you along, we’ve put together our list of the Top 25 kid-friendly food blogs. Hop on over and check out these delicious, kid-approved recipes that everyone will love. What began as a 100-day challenge for one family to cut out processed foods has grown into a worldwide movement that inspires people to ditch the crap and start cooking. 100 Days of Real Food is a one-stop shop of resources, including information about why it’s important to leave processed foods on the shelf, free menu plans, school lunch ideas, and more.

Food has become an incredibly popular focus for kid bloggers over the past year. More and more young people are blogging about the food they like to eat, recipes they’ve created and yummy treats they’ve baked. With three meals a day, a food blogger never runs out of ideas for blog posts. The down side is that it can take more work to be a food blogger – you have to decide on a recipe, gather your ingredients and then actually do some cooking whilst taking plenty of pictures before you write the post.

But the up side of that is that you are learning a skill you can use your whole life (we mean cooking as well as blogging), plus you’ll have something nice to eat at the end of it.
