North Berwick-based Jerba Campervans is taking to the road to visit chefs near the location of their acclaimed venues, challenging them to create simple, inspiring dishes using just the Jerba’s in-built hob or hot-plate.

The second chef to accept the challenge, Mark Greenaway, chef proprietor of Grazing, stepped up to create this wonderful recipe for Baby roast Chicken, roasted hazelnuts, cauliflower and roasted potatoes.

 

Ingredients:

• ½ Baby roast chicken
• 100g cauliflower
• 6 ratte potatoes
• 50g butter
• 1 litre of chicken stock
• 6 pearl onions
• 20g roasted hazelnuts
• 1 tablespoon of chopped thyme
• A pinch of salt
• A drizzle of olive oil

Method:

1) Add the potatoes to a pan of lightly salted boiling water and cook until they just start to soften

2) Blanch the cauliflower for 4-5 minutes in salted boiling water, drain and then set aside for later

3) Lightly season the chicken

4) Put oil in a frying pan on a medium heat and add in the chicken, skin side down

5) Once the chicken starts to colour, turn it onto the other side
