Weekend


Whilst doing my weekly shop I bought three large tubs of frozen mixed berries with the intention of making jam.  I got home and thought nothing more about it.  Later that evening I suddenly thought I didn’t have any jam sugar, luckily a short hunt around the cupboards revealed I had one full bag which would be more than enough for my needs.  

It was whilst reading the information on the back of the jam sugar that I remembered I had promised myself I would try and reduce the amount of sugar in my diet.  I thought this would help me lose a bit more weight, something I am struggling with at the moment, and which could not be remedied by my getting off my arse and going to the gym more often.  No indeed the true cure would be to reduce my sugar intake, which means no jam. 

I’m now left with three large tubs of defrosted mixed berries to eat before they go off.  

I planned to make a version of Chicken Cacciatore, but in true numbskull style I bought everything bar the chicken (which is incredible as I managed to remember to buy myself a snickers bar).  Not much of a hunter if I can’t bag a chicken in a supermarket.  So I basically made a ‘chop up the vegetables and bung it in a large pan with olive oil and fry until softened, throw in garlic, passata and a little water at the end’ sort of thing.  A version of Ratatouille, I suppose.  So from the initial idea of a version of one dish I’ve made a version of another.  As Raymond Blanc says ‘it is never a catastrophe’.
