JACKET POTATOES WITH ROASTED VEGGIES & GOAT CHEESE
I first tasted this in a great pub in Southwark London called "The Trinity." They make all their own recipes and everything there is homemade, even the condiments. Last night I tried to make my own version and it came very close to the original. This was served as a main dish with a side salad.

Add the garlic and cook for a minute or two until fragrant. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they release their water, about 6 minutes.
- Pour in the wine, and scrape up anything that has stuck to the bottom of the skillet. Cook until the liquid has mostly evaporated. Pour in the stock and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, add the tarragon and thyme, and cook until slightly thickened. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove the potatoes from the oven. Cut a cross in the top of the potatoes and squeeze the ends toward the middle to open the center and fluff them up a bit. Season the inside of the potato with a little salt, and then spoon on the sauce. Garnish with chopped parsley.
