Fried chicken is a family favourite but can often be a messy and time consuming process. These baked drumsticks simplify the method without sacrificing flavour. Our spiced chicken flour makes for a crispy, tasty coating and the creamy mash is packed with hidden carrots. Crunchy slaw and rich gravy finish the dish.
