Dice 1 onion and add to pan with small amount of oil then add mixed spices and paprika (see photo). Once a little brown, cook rice to ratio of 1/2 cup to 1 1/2 boiling water lowest heat. Once done set aside.

Prepare chicken to go into pan. Put small amount of oil on bottom of oven pan and add a pinch of mixed spices then rub into chicken. Seperate the skin between the breast filet and gently stuff rice under skin until slightly full. Pour 2 cups of water into pan.

Continued; Remaining rice needs to be stuff inside the chicken cavity. Wedge onions and scatter around chicken. Cook time will be 30mins on 200degrees (fan forced) then remove and bast. Continue this for another 30mins then check thigh part to see if juices run clear, if not clear turn down heat to 150degrees for another 10mins.

Boil potatoes with thyme, rosemary and mint until slightly tender then drain thoroughly. Heat 500ml of cooking oil and place potatoes in oil to fry, be sure not to overcrowd. Once golden remove and set aside.

For gravy remove onions and juices (some rice may be in it but that’s ok) from pan into a mincer/chopper and blend until smooth. May need a little boiled water to thin out. Add to a fry pan and slowly heat, the serve next to chicken. Plate all these goodies up and enjoy! Sahten (eat well). ☺️
