   1                    Large chicken (about 4 lb)*
   2      T             Butter
   1                    Shallot or small onion
   1      pn            Ground cloves
   1      pn            Ground allspice
 300      ml            Chicken stock
  12      x             Slices bacon
                        Salt and pepper
   8      oz            Clarified butter

  the chicken, then bone and skin it. Mince until fairly fine. Season with
  salt, the pepper, and spices, and the finely chopped onion or shallot,
  then stir in stock and run through blender or food processor.  
  .
  Butter well a deep casserole or dish and stretch the bacon slices with a
  knife, then line the dish with them, reserving some for the top. Pour in
  the meat mixture and level off. Dot the top with butter. Lay the rest of
  the bacon on top. Cover with foil and a lid. Stand the casserole in a
  container of hot water reaching halfway up the side of the casserole. Bake
  at 180C/350F for about 1 1/2 - 2 hours. When ready, run a knife around the
  edges and leave to get cold. When cold, press down with a spoon, pour the
  clarified butter over the top, and keep in a cold place until needed.
  Serves 8-10.
