I almost forgot that I´m cooking.

I left the chicken simmering and came back to bed with my coffee. I was half asleep when I remembered that I might have the 2 thighs burned in the pot. After the fire, I am always worrying about the way I cook. Gone are the days when I had the perfect pot where I started to cook potatoes and finished eating roasted potatoes in my almost blackened potato pot. I would cut off and throw away the burned part. The rest was better than cooked, with lots of butter. Now I think of fire, firemen and senior homes for dumb old ladies. But no. I ran to the kitchen (it was a good exercise) and the chicken thighs were giving some broth. And now that I´m writing this, maybe I could add a couple of spoonfulls of broth to them. But I had diced mushrooms and now I added cream. Immediatly it started to smell like heaven! I should cook some rice to go with it. The cream turns into a thick milk and I need some dryer side to absorb it. If I start my rice right now, I could be having lunch in 20 minutes. See you.

It sounds like a delicious dish you are cooking. Can't go wrong with mushrooms.I am so thankful I have the alarm on my phone. I am so forgetful. I can set a stopwatch or an alarm. Thank goodness I have that.

@marguicha ......Yeah, that's the problem. If you forget to set it then it isn't much good to you.

I wasn´t sure if the chicken would give enough broth so that it would not dry up too much. But it was perfect when I went to see it and then the mushrooms and cream helped.

And it is so easy and delicious. The only thing to watch out for is to simmer it in very low heat so that the chicken juices up.

Glad that you remembered in time and saved the chicken from burning. Your meal sounds yummy! I have burnt a few meals in my kitchen too because of forgetfulness.. But fortunately, it has not caught fire yet.

I´m a pro at burning potatoes when I´m boiling them now that I have the laptop on all day.

When I hgad my PC in the second floor years ago, I had no problem as the aroma went up before it burned. Now I have to be more careful.
