Tarragon-Nectarine Chicken with Sauvignon Blanc

- Sugar to sweeten sauce- Caramelised onion, no garlic
- Combination actually works, but I can't tell, because I've never liked tarragon much. Bitter of tarragon, sweet and sour of fruit and wine
- Surprised that nectarine worked so well with chicken, still ambivalent about tarragon working with chicken though.

- Mashed roast garlic in pumpkin with hazelnut oil. Roast garlic is such a great idea.
All cooked at medium to medium-low heat

*Carrot layered with the pumpkin mash is nice

- Don't know that I'd want all three in this combination this time, though each section worked in itself.

Asparagus might have worked better with the chicken.

Then I tested pumpkin soup with butter-sauted mushrooms, and this was absolutely the most awesome combination. To die for.

dry apple laksa

This is a winner.

Dry-fried Yeo's laksa paste, chicken and apples.

Seasoned chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Fried laksa paste with the 3 treasures (garlic, ginger, onion) and lemon peel, followed by chicken (til brown). Remove.

Saute apple, with a touch of carrot and cabbage in same pan. Added lemon juice and brown sugar. When soft, added chicken back and cooked all til apple is slightly browned. More salt to taste.
