Ingredients:
1 Whole chicken
350 gr/12 oz walnuts, crushed
4 slices of stale bread, crusts removed
4 cloves of garlic, crushed with salt
10 ml/ 2 teaspoon Turkish red pepper flakes – if not available, paprika or cayenne pepper
Salt and pepper to taste

For the garnish:

2 spoon of butter and red pepper
Combine the chicken and hot water to almost cover the chicken in a large pan, season with salt. Cover and simmer until the chicken is tender. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside to cool. When it is cool enough to handle, discard the skin (if whole chicken used), strip the meat from the bones, tear into thin strips and put to one side. Reserve the cooking chicken liquid.
By the help of rondo machine mix the garlic and bread. Then, crumble the walnut. Add the chicken and walnut into the mixed bread and garlic. Add the reserved chicken liquid in to the mixture slowly to form a paste.
Heat the butter and add the red pepper. Then pour it onto the chicken mixture to garnishing.
