DRESSING

Take the fowl and separate the legs from the main carcass. Cut the legs
through the knee bone joint and reserve aside. Take the wishbone out at the
front of the bird and continue to cut the remaining breasts of the
guineafowl off the carcass. Cut through the wing joint, thus retaining it
on the breast. Lift the exposed breast fillet and place a quarter of the
prepared lemon thyme underneath it.

Take the rashers of bacon and stretch them out with the aid of a rolling
pin so they attain twice their original length. Wrap the individual breasts
with a bacon rasher securing with a wooden cocktail stick. Place the entire
guineafowl meat into a roasting dish with sides high enough to hold the
chicken stock. Place the other ingredients alongside the meat, lightly
season.

Bring the bouillon to a gentle boil, place in a preheated oven 200C and
cook for about 15 minutes.
