Chicken in plum sauce with sweet mash






First of all i like the autumn, because the beautiful colours, the leaves in the street, and a chilly, but not freezing cold weather. And of course for the cooking you have a lot of opportunity to pick a juicy fresh autumn produce, and create something warming, and colorful like the season. This supper is all  about the plums, and it is my version  for a perfect autumn dinner.


CHICKEN IN PLUM SAUCE WITH SWEET MASH

For the chicken:
4 chicken legs
5-6 plums ( just cut in half)
2 cloves of garlic (pelled, chopped)
red wine (something heavy dry one)
soy sauce
olive oil
agave syrup or honey
salt/pepper/cinnamon

For the mash:
2 sweet potato (peeled, chopped)
4 medium potato (peeled, chopped)
butter
milk 
salt/pepper


For the mash, just cook the potatoes together in water, with salt, and pepper, and when its soft (it takes about 30 min) just mash them with butter, milk, salt and pepper.
In a baking dish just put a little bit of olive oil, and then can go the chicken, half plums, garlic, soy sauce, red wine (1 dl), season with salt,fresh ground pepper and a little bit of cinnamon.In the end add the honey or the agave syrup and it will help to caramelised the plums. First cover with foil, and 30 in 200 degrees C, and after need more 10 minute without a foil for a nice crispiness.
