It doesn’t taste the same, but today’s attempt was pretty good, so I thought I better write it down before I forget.</p> <h1>Ingredients</h1> <p>(I tend to make up the amounts as I go along, so these are only rough):</p> <ul><li>1 medium chicken</li> <li>250ml white wine</li> <li>100ml chicken or vegetable stock</li> <li>6 cloves of garlic</li> <li>salt and pepper</li> <li>paprika</li> <li>rosemary, thyme and oregano</li> <li>1 orange</li> <li>1 onion</li> <li>Olive oil</li> </ul><h1>Method</h1> <ul><li>Slice the orange into quarters and stick two quarters inside the chicken. </li> <li>Crush the garlic, then mix it with the wine and stock. Add in some of the herbs, salt and pepper. </li> <li>Rub olive oil into the chicken skin</li> <li>Sit the chicken in a casserole and pour over the wine/stock mixture.</li> <li>Cover the chicken and leave it sat in the mixture for an hour or two, occasionally spooning the mixture over the top again.</li> <li>Heat your oven to whatever temperature is recommended for your chicken. </li> <li>Sit the remaining pieces of orange, plus your quartered onion in the bottom of the casserole</li> <li>Give a light dusting of paprika over the top of the chicken, cover with foil and cook.</li> <li>After twenty minutes, remove the foil and continue to cook for however long your chicken needs, basting occasionally.</li> <li>Eat, preferably without burning your mouth on the sauce, like I did today.</li> </ul>http://madeofstone.net/post/16707672543http://madeofstone.net/post/16707672543Sun, 29 Jan 2012 18:41:22 +0000<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ly20hsgZug1qzngv8o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Eye eye</p>http://madeofstone.net/post/16118929548http://madeofstone.net/post/16118929548Thu, 19 Jan 2012 16:29:52 +0000<iframe width="400" height="299" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/g5TXolwA7cE?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>The best advert ever made</p>http://madeofstone.net/post/15779313687http://madeofstone.net/post/15779313687Fri, 13 Jan 2012 16:52:36 +0000<iframe width="400" height="299" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Nv_TvSB-9Mk?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>One of my favourite Fry and Laurie sketches (and very true)</p>http://madeofstone.net/post/15638233913http://madeofstone.net/post/15638233913Tue, 10 Jan 2012 22:51:53 +0000<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxdgdyw2X81qzngv8o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Not helpful…</p>http://madeofstone.net/post/15393617528http://madeofstone.net/post/15393617528Fri, 06 Jan 2012 10:13:10 +0000<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx6dcqJkTD1qzngv8o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Yorkshire</p>http://madeofstone.net/post/15182568553http://madeofstone.net/post/15182568553Mon, 02 Jan 2012 14:24:26 +0000<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx0jq5n46t1qzngv8o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Ant</p>http://madeofstone.net/post/15022071049http://madeofstone.net/post/15022071049Fri, 30 Dec 2011 10:56:29 +0000<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx0jploII31qzngv8o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Joe</p>http://madeofstone.net/post/15022065065http://madeofstone.net/post/15022065065Fri, 30 Dec 2011 10:56:09 +0000<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lwzcctfCMV1qzngv8o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Cafe</p>http://madeofstone.net/post/14985828978http://madeofstone.net/post/14985828978Thu, 29 Dec 2011 19:19:41 +0000<p>According to <a href="http://www.last.fm/user/rahoulb" target="_blank">last.fm</a> this is what I listened to this year…</p> <p>1: Chase & Status – Time</p> <p>2: The Kills – Nail in My Coffin</p> <p>3: Imelda May – Kentish Town Waltz</p> <p>4: DEV – Bass Down Low</p> <p>5: Imelda May – Mayhem</p> <p>6: Martin Solveig & Dragonette – Hello</p> <p>7: DEV – Booty Bounce</p> <p>8: Toddla T – Watch Me Dance</p> <p>9: Shivaree – Bossa Nova</p> <p>10: The Naked And Famous – Punching In A Dream</p> <p>11: Tinie Tempah & Swedish House Mafia – Miami 2 Ibiza</p> <p>12: Lady Gaga – Born This Way</p> <p>13: Toddla T Featuring Mr Versatile – Rice And Peas</p> <p>14: Aloe Blacc – I Need A Dollar</p> <p>15: Gentleman’s Dub Club – Gentleman’s Sleng</p> <p>16: Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Heads Will Roll (A-Trak Remix)</p> <p>17: Imelda May – Proud and Humble</p> <p>18: Cassius – I ♥ U So (Skream’s Made Zdar Feel Like He Was 20 Again)</p> <p>19: Prodigy – Stand Up</p> <p>20: Far East Movement – Like a G6 (feat.
