- 125ml single cream
 
- Handful parmesan / cheddar cheese
 
- Bay leaf
 
- 
Thyme
 
- 
Rosemary
 
- 2 chicken breasts
 
- 2 tsp mustard powder
 
- 3 baby or 1 large leek
 
- 1 clove garlic
 
- Splash white wine
 
- 75ml cream
 
- 
1 tsp wholegrain mustard
 
- 
Mixed veg
 
Method
- Halve the red onion. Wash the potatoes but leave the skin on. Slice the potatoes and onions thinly in the food processor.
 
- Tip into a large roasting tray, season, add the nutmeg, garlic, cream, parmesan cheese, bay leaves, thyme, and a drizzle of olive oil. Mix together and put on the hob over a medium heat. Pour in 100ml boiled water and cover with tin foil. Leave on the heat.
 
- Flatten the chicken breasts with a meat hammer. Add the mustard powder, finely chopped rosemary, salt, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Rub the flavours all over the meat then fry in a large frying pan.
 
- After a few minutes, take the foil lid off the dauphinois, stir, add a little extra cheese on top, and transfer to the oven to finish off. They need about 10-15 minutes in the oven.
 
- Flip the chicken and cook for a few more minutes.
 
- Add the leek to the pan and saute. Once starting to soften, add the garlic, and a dash of white wine. Bubble to allow the wine to reduce, then add the cream and put the lid of the pan.
 
- Remove the chicken and slice into pieces. Stir the mustard through the sauce, then put the chicken back on the pan and stir through.
 
- Serve the dauphinois and chicken with fresh mixed vegetables.
