A small roast…

It’s simply chicken. Marinated in olive oil and herbes de Provence, baked slowly until it’s crispy.

No big fuss for the veggies : the okra in the rest of marinade, plus a little tomato, reheated together. The bok choi was added in the oven at the end. Could I be lazier ? Yes, the yama imo (Chinese yam) is raw, with capers and paprika.
