i let it sizzle in the kuali for a while & added salt, pepper & butter to taste.

Big D had his potatoes with pesto sauce. it was a great combination! also we had creme caramel & bubur cha cha for dessert. i like the mirepoix, the chicken was moist, thanks to the apple. i chopped up the apple & mixed it with the mirepoix :-) don't waste...
