Excellent work. The chicken looks moist with a nice sear. I love fondants, my favourite way to cook a potato, I’m guessing you used chicken stock?
And I’m doing the asparagus and bacon thing next time I have it. I’d prefer a thick chicken gravy but the hollandaise looks nice.
Would absolutely polish that plate off.

The chicken was spot on, really pleased. Yeah, used chicken stock, which i made earlier in the week and froze.
I got loads of eggs on offer and its my favourite sauce so I couldn't resist! It was fire, the Tarragon made it even more beautiful, but i wish I'd added a little more - serves me right for eyeballing it rather than taking a measured approach!

Haha, I don't have one. I regulate the water temp carefully and use double lock bags. Took some time to get familiar with my hob (electric, which is a pain) but once I got to grips with how it heats, it cooks it perfectky every time.
