Cooking Steps

1

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. • Peel potato and cut into large chunks. • Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. • Add the butter and milk to the potato and season with salt. Mash until smooth.

TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled. Little cooks: Get those muscles working and help mash the potatoes!

• Meanwhile, preheat grill to high. • Finely chop celery and garlic. Drain the sweetcorn. Cut cauliflower into small florets. • Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks.

• Place cauliflower on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Spread out evenly, then roast until tender and brown around edges, 20-25 minutes. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. When oil is hot, cook diced bacon with chicken and season with salt and pepper, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 5-6 minutes. • Reduce heat to medium-high, then add celery and cook, stirring, until softened, 6-7 minutes.
