La Familia Galle - an Italian Meal
Beer Can Chicken
- One Beer (in a can, preferably tall, stupid.)
- A whole Chicken
- S&P
- 1 head of garlic
- 1/2 bunch EACH of fresh thyme, parsley, sage & marjoram
Chef Tip: I recommend growing fresh herb plants on a windowsill, this way they are there when you need them and you are not stuck with a fridge drawer full of wilting 1/2 bunches of herbs.
What to do:

The 6 Minute Gazpacho
WHAT'S IN IT
2 garlic cloves
1 chilli roughly chopped
one cup of water or a small can of V8a chopped fistful of fresh coriander
salt & pepper to taste
Roughly chop the garlic and green pepper and chilli and puree until almost well blended, add some olive oil to moisten it up. Add the tomatoes, lime juice, water and salt and pepper. Puree until your desired consistency. Add the V8 or more H2O, olive oil and coriander to the blender and proceed to mix. Make sure to chill the soupy mixture, even better if left over night.
As a topper for the soup I like to add something different every time. This time, I mixed up some avocado, lemon juice, red onion and cucumber with a little olive oil and S&P, along with some fresh oriander leaves and, wham-oh, the soup pops with colour.
