Chestnut and chicken velouté
I’d suggest making this recipe the same weekend you make the chicken with rice and lentils.
After cutting up the chicken pieces, put the carcass in lightly salted cold water and cook for an hour.
There — you’ve already got your stock. Nothing goes to waste. It’s by saving that you can afford better-quality produce.
