Steps
Let’s see the steps
First, check that the guinea fowl has no remaining feathers, wash it, then pat it dry. Take the pan and distribute inside a mixture of onion, carrot, and rosemary. Prepare a base on which you will place the guinea fowl.
Start to seal the meat by browning it in this mixture. After two minutes, when the meat is slightly browned on both sides, add the rest of the spices, garlic, thyme, bay leaves, etc.
Now deglaze with white wine. Also add the water (not hot) in which you have dissolved a generous teaspoon of cornstarch, the salt, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Remember that cornstarch serves to thicken but should not be added to hot water; otherwise, it will clump.
Cover the pan and let it cook over medium-low heat for about 40 minutes, adjusting based on the size of your guinea fowl.
Once ready you will see that the cornstarch has helped create a nice creamy sauce, which you will distribute over your meat.
All that’s left to say is, ENJOY YOUR MEAL
