We went to see the new Julie and Julia movie this afternoon. It was really cute. At the end I was sad because I guess Julie never got to meet Julia- I have not read the book but at least that is what the movie ended with. I know I should have put some kind of spoiler alert on this but tough. We went with Chris' mom and sister and then like the big dorks we are we came home and cooked a Julia Child meal.
In this month's "Bon Appetit," they have a section of 6 recipes from "Mastering the Art of French Cooking." We only did one of the six but it was delicious. We did the Poulet Saute Aux Herbes De Provence. Any time you cook chicken in a whole stick of butter, well that obviously cannot be bad. We did not get a super awesome picture of the chicken but as you can see that stick of butter led to an awesome golden crust.
We also had scalloped potatoes- this recipe I believe originally came from"Bon Appetit" as well- it was a Gordon Ramsey deal. I think- I cut out the recipe a while back. I also cut up a patty pan squash and roasted it.
