This is a perfect meal for family gatherings, used to make it for my small business. Also known as Cornish chicken. Best served with steamed bread & salad of your choice . South African meal best enjoyed during those cold winter evenings. The pieces are big

Steps

1

Cut the chicken open & remove inside content. Then thoroughly clean and cut into pieces
2

In a big enough pot, preferably big, heat oil on high & place the chicken pieces inside. The aim is to brown the chicken to give it colour.
3

Then remove the chicken from the pot.
4

In the same pot fry chopped onions, green until soft
5

Add spoon of crushed ginger & garlic, flavoured spice, mixed herbs,
6

Add garlic & herb spice
7

Fry at medium heat so it doesn’t burn. Then when soft, put the chicken pieces back inside.
8

Add water, make sure it’s enough to cover the chicken.
9

Add powdered chicken stock. I personally love this on from Benny. Add half a satchet rather not the complete thing. The flavours become concentrated as the broth thickens. Don’t want salty meat
10

1h30 to 2h00 it should be done. Ready to eat. Best served with steamed bread, chakalaka, or whatever salad you like.

Improving my cooking skills 1 recipe a time. I love how the favours come together, the reaction of people you get to taste my food, plating & taking beautiful pictures before I eat, while the food gets cold 😂
