DISH OF THE WEEK GARLIC ROAST


CHICKEN with Jane Clarke


IS there anything more tempting than the smell of a delicious, fresh chicken roasting in the oven? Chicken is Britain's favourite


meat - combine it with crisp, fresh vegetables, and you'll serve up a meal bursting with vitamins and minerals. This year Jane Clarke has put


together some top tips, so you can create a mouth-watering, nutri­ tious roast dinner that won't add inches to your waist. Jane Clarke is the country's most trusted nutritionist. She is also “This Morning's” resident nutritionist, Jamie Oliver's nutrition adviser and author of three best-selling books. '


Jane explains: "Chicken is a ■


great choice if you want a healthy roast dinner, as it has less fat than red meat and is packed with pro­ tein and other essential nutrients. “If you're watching your weight


then follow these simple tips, designed to help you cut out unnecessary calories and fat, leav­ ing, you with an utterly delicious roast. The skin of the chicken is one of


my favourite bits but it does con­ tain higher amounts of fat than the rest of the bird. However, follow the tips below


and you really can have your skin and eat it!" Whether you prefer a tradition­


al roast chicken or like to add an exotic twist, it's such a simple meal to prepare. By choosing Great British


Chicken, you'll know that you're getting fresh farm-assured British birds that are fully traceable back to independently-assessed farms. Just look for the Great British


Chicken logo or Red Tractor and Union flag on packs. Jane Clarke's Top Tips For Cook­ ing a Healthier Roast


This will also flavour the meat. Discard the lemon or onion after


cooking. Rather than cooking your root


Chicken has enough natural fat


to make it crispy and delicious without needing to add extra oil. To make sure it stays moist, put a little chicken stock in the bottom of the roasting dish, and then cover the chicken with cooking foil while it is in the oven. About 30 minutes before the chicken is ready, remove the foil, so that the skin goes crispy. To help absorb some of the


excess fat, place half a lemon or half an onion inside the chicken while cooking.


A watching brief. . . KEEP a close eye on your watch today and, for one full second, you will be able to celebrate a timely event. At exactly two minutes and three seconds past one o’clock today, May 4th, 2006, the time and date will be 01:02:03:04:05:06. And for the film buffs among you,


today is also Star Wars Day. May the fourth he ivith you!

you are making stuffing', don't use i t to stuff the chicken. Instead, cook the stuffing in a separate ovenproof dish. That way it won't absorb the fat from the bird. This delicious Garlic Roast

O 1 medium whole. Great British


Chicken ® 6 heads of garlic ® salt and pepper ® 4 sprigs thyme ® 2 lemons


Method 1) Preheat the oven to 190°C /


375°F/gasmark5. 2) Leave four heads of garlic


whole and peel and slice the remaining cloves into slivers. 3) Season the chicken with salt


and pepper to taste. 4) Gently pull the skin away


from the breast and slide in two of the thyme sprigs. Use a knife to make six small slits in the chicken breast and carefully spear six garlic slivers into the slits. 5) Tuck the lemons, the remain­


ing thyme and a few garlic slivers into the ca-vity and place the chick­ en in a roasting tin. Scatter the remaining garlic heads around the chicken. 6) Place chicken in the oven and


roast for 20 minutes per 500g plus 10-20 minutes extra. The juices should run clear when the chicken thigh is pierced. If not, cook fur­ ther. 7) Serve the chicken surrounded by the roast garlic heads.

WE have all heard of Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Navarra and Jerez, but what about the Levant or let alone Yecla, one of its smaller sub-regions? Many of Spain’s lesser-known regions


are realising their potential with better vineyard management and better wine­ m ak in g equipment g re a t s trides are b e in g made, wr i te s wine expert ANDREW BYRNE. Yecla, in South Eastern Spain has two


big co-operatives which for many years made huge amounts of table wine, one family the Castanos, who used to sell th e i r wines to one of those co-ops, in 1985 made the big leap forward and built a new bodega and fitted it out with modern wine making equipment. Over the years their wines have got better and better, into what we have today. BODEGAS CASTANO DOMINIO


ESPINAL TINTO a t £4.29. This, the least of their reds, is made from a blend of m o n a s tre l l ( th e S p an ish for th e mourvedre grape), with some syrah. This is a big, fruity, easy drinking wine, perfect with sausages. BODEGAS CASTANO MONAS­


TRELL a t £4.79. This wonderful variety gives wine a ripe, liquorice-character and supple, yet chewy tannins, ideal with grilled meats. Their best wine POZUELO comes as


a t CRIANZA a t £6.89 or selected from this, and kept a little while longer in oak, th e RESERVA a t £7.59. Again these wines are based on the monastrell grape with some cabernet and syrah. The wines are as diverse and fascinat­ ing as they are delicious and good value.
