We ate a relatively mature boy last weekend. He was given to us by a friend and was a beautiful colour, but something about him was setting off our other roosters – they were constantly crowing and we think his presence caused a fight between two of our other boys.
As he had been crowing for quite a while, he was way past the ideal eating age. This consigned him to the stewing pot, with celery, onions, capsicum, carrot and plenty of herbs. He was delicious, but despite the 7 hours of gentle cooking, quite stringy.
Like I said last chicken, when we eat a chicken we’ve known, I feel like we should try for something special, so I baked some bread too. Still no oven, so it’s the pan/grill version still (which is working better and better!). This uses the recipe from the paneer page.
Mmmmm chicken
