I watched Gordon Ramsey prepare this seemingly delicious Sticky Lemon Chicken and Potatoes earlier today and thought that you’d like to try his recipe.

1 large chicken, cut into 8-10 pieces
sea salt
black pepper
3-4 T olive oil
1 head of garlic, halved horizontally
few thyme sprigs
splash of sherry vinegar
2 T dark soy sauce
3 T honey
1 lemon, finely sliced
bunch of parsley, chopped
Champ
Your Ingredients
approx 2.5 lbs russet potatoes, peeled
sea salt
black pepper
2 T butter
bunch of spring onions (scallions), washed and chopped
about 1/2 cup double cream (heavy)
about 1/2 cup whole milk, plus extra
Champ (food) (brúitín in Irish) is a northern Irish dish, made by combining mashed potatoes and chopped spring onions with butter and milk, and optionally, salt and pepper. It is simple and inexpensive to produce. In some areas the dish is also called “poundies.”
Champ is similar to the Irish dish colcannon, which uses kale or cabbage in place of scallions.
Potatoes are generally divided into two categories -waxy or floury (see below), if you are unsure of the variety of potato you have and want to know before cooking, mix one part salt to 11 parts water in a measuring jug and add the potato. A floury one will almost always sink to the bottom of the jug, while a waxy one will float.
Potato - floury varieties and their uses
Floury potatoes are so named because of their low moisture and sugar content. They are high in starch. Floury potatoes are best used for baking, roasting, mashing and deep-frying. Due to their low sugar content they tend to fall apart when boiled. Common floury varieties include - coliban, spunta, russet (pictured), kennebec (this variety makes up 40% of Australia’s potato crop and is largely used for processed chips).
