Today, I am all fired up to cook. As per the one week menu I previously planned (yes, very ‘Monica’), tonight’s dinner is chicken rissoles with mushroom sauce.

Again, it’s taken from my favourite easy to make recipe book from Periplus. The patty is made of minced chicken, breadcrumbs, dried tarragon, chopped onions and of course salt and pepper. The original recipe called for mayonnaise but I opted out because the mix was a little too soft already.

The sauce is made of chopped spring onions,  stir fried with sliced mushroom and cream. Additionally, the sauce requires a quarter cup of white wine. I prepared the patties ahead of time and put it aside, so I only had to reheat it and make the sauce when dinner time came. The taste? Aside to needing more salt in the patties, the taste overall was great and I will definitely make this again.
