INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 220c/425f/Gas 7.  1 For the Cider Bread: Sieve 8 heaped
tbsp plain flour and baking  powder into a bowl. Place 1 tbsp olive
oil, chopped mixed herbs and  150ml/ 1/4 pint cider in a mini food
processor and blitz until  combined.  2 Pour the cider mixture onto the
flour and mix together to make a  dough. If necessary, add a little
milk. Turn the dough out onto a  floured surface, knead gently and
shape into a round.  3 Mark into quarters with a knife, put on a baking
sheet and cook in  the oven for 10-15 minutes until cooked through.  4
Cut the potato into cubes and cook in a pan of boiling water until
tender. Season 55g/2oz plain flour, add the chicken thighs and dust to
coat.  5 Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a saute pan, add the chicken
skin-side  down, and cook for a few minutes to brown and seal. Turn the
chicken  over, add the garlic and cook for three minutes.  6 Slice half
the onion and add to the browned chicken. Pour off any  excess fat from
the chicken, then add enough cider to almost cover.  7 Simmer for 10-15
minutes, or until cooked through, topping up the  pan with extra cider
as necessary.  8 For the Warm Coleslaw: Heat 50ml/ 2fl oz cider in a
wok. Chop the  remaining onion and add to the cider. Then simmer
rapidly until the  cider has reduced by about half.  9 Using a potato
peeler, cut 'ribbons' from the carrots. Add the  shredded cabbage and 1
tbsp olive oil to the reduced cider and cook  quickly to just wilt
down.  10 Add the carrot ribbons, mint leaves, season and toss together
to  combine. Heat the butter in a small frying pan, add the turmeric
and  cook for a minute.  11 Drain the cooked potatoes, add the cream
and butter and turmeric  mixture and mash, then stir in the chopped
parsley and season.  12 Spoon the mash onto a plate, arrange the
chicken around the edge  and pour over the sauce from the pan. Serve
with the warm coleslaw  and cider bread.  Converted by MC_Buster.
