Chicken and Vegie Hotpot

[Wonder]

I've made this tonight for tomorrow nights dinner. Used peas, mushrooms, broccoli, zucchini and carrots. The vegetables went very mushy even though I only added the broccoli and zucchini with the chicken so the sauce is a nice shade of green! I had a taste of the gravy and it tasted pretty good, it should be lovely for dinner tomorrow after it's been left overnight.

Hi
Just wondering if this dish is suitable as a casserole or is it more like a soup. Also I have never used white wine in my cooking, so which wine do people buy for cooking.
Thanks

I buy a 1 litre cask wine for cooking - usually chardonnay which I don't drink.  Purely for cooking.

I buy verjuice and if I don't have any white wine open I use that. It isn't cheap though. Just saves me opening a bottle of wine we may not finish.

That's why I buy the small cask Cookie - it saves having to throw out unused bottles.

Thanks for that tip Cookie as I actually have a bottle of verjuice in my cupboard that I haven't used yet. I purchased it a while ago for a recipe but have forgotten what I bought it for so will try that. Save me buying a cask of wine which I probably wont use again.

Hi all! I havent been on here for a long time! I was so glad when I logged in and found this recipe again! I had clean forgotten how I had made it. Am trying it with whatever veg I have in the fridge. Tonight its peas corn potato pumpkin and a little sweet potato and instead of the white wine I am trying verjuice as suggested. Its smelling very nice in my kitchen right now. Cant wait for dinner!
