Let’s get<br />
marinating!<br />
With these very weird and<br />
unprecedented times aff ecting<br />
all of us, I, as thousands of<br />
others, have now been laid off<br />
work for the next few weeks at<br />
least.<br />
Cooking was something that<br />
I used to love and cookbooks<br />
were my guilty pleasure, (Ali<br />
can vouch for my obsession<br />
and match it!) but working<br />
full time meant cooking had<br />
become a chore. Now with<br />
all my free time, dare I say it,<br />
I’m actually starting to enjoy it<br />
again. Having to be creative<br />
with ingredients when there is<br />
little on the shelves and minimal<br />
trips to the shops, using what’s<br />
in the cupboard has never been<br />
more important.<br />
Marinating meat infuses so<br />
much more fl avour into the dish<br />
and the longer you can leave<br />
it the better it tastes. Here are<br />
three very simple recipes to<br />
turn the humble chicken thigh<br />
or fi llet into something tasty. If<br />
you’re missing your favourite<br />
restaurant or takeaway right<br />
now (I know I am!) you can still<br />
enjoy fabulous fl avours at home<br />
at very little cost and minimum<br />
eff ort.<br />
Enjoy!<br />
