Thanksgiving today. I cooked a chicken and some sweet potatoes with mixed veg.
I have no idea why Americans mash the sweet potatoes and add sugar and make a desert out of sweet potato and try and serve it with the main meal. It really should be served as a desert. Instead of pumkin pie - it should be sweet potato pie. Anyway...
Instead I added salt and rosemary (bitter) to off-set the sweetness of the sweet potato. I simply roasted them in the skins (for fibre) and they were nice!
I took the chicken out of the pan and added water and stock. I left the roasted onions in the pan. I then boiled the pan on the stove for a while. I added a little corn starch. The gravy was awesome!
There was almost no effort put into this meal - and it turned out great. I am very thankful!
