My Simple Roast Chicken

Hello.....

The other day I was in the mood for some comfort food & decided to make a whole roasted chicken.......stuffed with aromatics & roasted on a bed of veggies.........

Sorry you guys....no measurements........ikut suka hati, mau banyak or kurang.....ok....one whole chicken, fresh rosemary leaves, potatoes, carrots, lemon, celery (in my case.....terlupa mau beli), garlic, big onions, butter, olive oil, salt & pepper to taste. The preparations.........smear some olive oil & butter to the chicken, sprinkle it with a little salt & pepper, & stuff with lemon & fresh rosemary. Scatter the chopped veggies, garlic & big onions in the roasting pan and then set the chicken on top. Roast them for about 45min to 1 hour.
To make the gravy.......remove from oven and place the chicken, carrots & potatoes on a serving platter. Add flour and stirring constantly, cook for about 2-3 minutes. You guys can pour in some "arak" if you want to....wink* wink*......and let it simmer. After that, I blend my gravy!
My roast "chikon"
I served it with baked potatoes, carrots, boiled cauliflower with butter & baked beans!!!! This recipe makes my shabby home smell heavenly....it came out rather well. The meat was juicy & tender!!!!!

Selamat mencuba u'ol!!!!
