Mushroom Burger
I found some Venison “Grills” - Burgers to you and I, in the Yellow Sticker fridge. Sue had seen a recipe in one of the Gluten Free groups she follows which used Portobello Mushrooms instead of a bun. So this was out take on it.
There’s really not a lot of point in typing a recipe – Just freestyle it with wherever you fancy! We had the Mushroom stems, minced Garlic, chopped Red Onions sautéed in Garlic Butter, Griddled Red Onions sliced, Grated Mature Cheddar and Beefsteak Tomatoes slices in ours. Add a bit of Horseradish and some home made Onion Rings and you’ve got a pretty tasty dinner!
Don’t forget the hand cut chips…..

Even with a yellow sticker a very small Chicken is now more expensive than a medium Chicken was last year. But let’s not get into a rant about food prices. A Chicken for less than £3 seems to be a bit of a win at the moment….

1 Tbsp of Chilli Powder
1 Tbsp of fresh Ginger, minced to a paste
1 Tbsp of Garlic, minced to a paste
1 Tsp of Cumin
1 Tbsp of Spirit Vinegar
50g of Olive based Margarine, melted
3 Potatoes, quartered
2 Tbsp of Honey
2 Red Onions, quartered
1 Lemon, half sliced, the remainder as is
2 Bulbs of Garlic, with the paper removed
Salt & Pepper to taste
Method:-
(1) Combine the Chilli Powder, Ginger, Garlic paste, Cumin, Vinegar, Honey, Melted Margarine , Salt & Pepper in a bowl.
(2) Cover the Chicken with this marinade both over and under the skin.
(3) Place in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
(4) Arrange the Potatoes, Onions and Garlic Cloves in an oven proof tray.
(5) Lay the Lemon sliced on top.
(6) Place the Chicken over this.
(7) Insert the remaining half of the Lemon in the cavity and truss the legs with string.
(8) Place in a pre-heated oven at 180c and baste with the marinade half way cooking.
(9) Cool until the juices run clear, depending on the size of your Chicken.
