The first recipes of my cook through went really well. 

I made 'Chicken and mushroom casserole with cider"' and 'Three root mash' It came out great, lots of flavor. I used my favorite Julian Hard Cider and although it was great I'd love to try it with half Julian Hard and half of a non-alcoholic apple cider to get a stronger apple flavor. I also used Colman's British mustard, which isn't hard to find at any super market. The chicken recipe was simple and would be easy to recreate even after a long day of work. I loved the three root mash. I mean parsnips! You can't go wrong. I used carrots and potatoes as well. I followed the recipe cooking the the carrots and parsnips first and then combining the potatoes and the rest of ingredients.

Not having a food processor I used a immersion blender and blended the carrots and parsnips. I think my mash was a bit more chunkier than in the book but I still enjoyed it.

Cook Through 'River Cottage Everyday' so far is great!
