This is the first in a monthly series of exciting Friday Night dinner recipes that I thought might be fun for you to try out on your beloved, as well as other loved ones in your life. I don’t know about you, but I’m always looking for inspiration for what to cook for Mr STG, as well as recipe ideas for when it’s more than just the two of us for dinner.
Quite often our parents, in-laws and siblings join us for Friday nights, and it’s up to my hubby (who does most of the cooking in our house) to rustle up a beautiful dinner. I’d love to get back into cooking and contribute more in the kitchen, so I asked Mark Frankel, a dear friend and talented masterchef, to share some modern takes on the traditional Shabbat meal / Friday night dinner.
I’ll be posting a brand new recipe of his on the first Friday of every month and these dishes will be perfect for busy souls who want tasty family dishes that don’t take all day to prepare.
I’d love you to try out the recipes and share your results on Instagram using the hashtag #SmashingFridayNight. It would be so great to see your creations and of course I’ll be sharing mine too!
So let’s hand over to Mark, our new resident chef, who is kicking off the series with his take on the perfect roast chicken. I mean… how could he we start the series with anything else?! This dish is perfect for when the family come over on Friday night, or for the weekend of your wedding.
I can’t wait to see how you get on… Happy Friday!
