4 chicken pieces
3 tbsp olive oil
tin tomatoes
1 clove garlic chopped
1" ginger chopped fine or grated
3 tbsp tomato puree
large onion chopped in chunks
handful mushrooms [more if you like them]
2 tsp oregano
handful black olives
1/4 pt cheap red wine [optional]
chicken stock

Handy Hint

this recipe is very forgiving, add as much as you like - more mushrooms, olives, wine, sweetcorn, peas. the choice is yours.

Method

1. fry off the onions and ginger, then add the chicken.
2. add everything else, bring to the boil. Season. It should be a wettish mixture, to casserole.
either leave to simmer very gently for about an hour, or put in oven at 170C for about 90 minutes.
3. Serve with baked potatoes/rice/crusty bread and green salad.

An easy family favourite, full of flavour. BTW the name is when I minded children and got fed up being asked "What's for dinner". I replied "Hedgehog" to which the little boy said, "Mmmm. I LOVE Hedgehog!" Simon 1- me 0
