Ingredients
  • 1 large fresh free range chicken
  • 2 1/4 uncooked smoked gammon (ham)
  • 3 T Vegetable Stock Powder
  • 2 envelopes of gelatine powder
  • 3/4 cup parsley, chopped

Directions
  1. Put the raw chicken and uncooked ham together into a saucepan and add 6 pints of warm tap water. Add vegetable stock powder. Bring to the boil, put a well fitting lid on the saucepan and turn the heat down to low. Simmer very slowly for 2 hours until the meats are tender. Leave to cool down until lukewarm in the stock. Remove the chicken from the stock. Strip off the skin and discard, take the meat off the bone and cut into strips - keep on one side. Remove the gammon (reserve the stock), peel off the skin and cut away all the fat. Slice the meat into strips.
  2. Sprinkle both packets of gelatine over 3 T (45 ml) cold water in a cup and leave on the side to sponge while reducing the stock.
  3. Return saucepan to stove and boil very fast, without a lid until the stock is reduced to 3 pints. This is important - the ratio of stock to gelatine is key to the setting of the mould. Add parsley and just bring back up to the boil to sterilise the herbs to ensure a longer shelf-life for the mould. Add the gelatine sponge and stir to dissolve.
  4. Add the meat from the chicken and ham to the stock and stir to mix. urn out into two terrines or loaf pans. Cover with cling wrap and store overnight in the fridge. Turn out and cut into thick slices - an electric knife works best. Don't forget a good granular mustard on the side!
