Instructions:

Remove the two legs and the breasts from the cornish hen. Roughly cut the carcass and together with the greens, the spice bag and three liters of water make a chicken broth, then gently simmer it for three hours.

Sparrows:

First, finely mash the eggs with the chickweed and a pinch of salt, then whisk together with the flour and a little mineral water to make an airy batter. Season with salt and grated nutmeg and let the dough rest for a few minutes. Then, using a small wooden board and a palette, scrape the dough into boiling salted water, rise briefly and quench in cold water. Transfer the sparrows to a colander, then toss repeatedly in a little butter.

Lentils:

Soak the black lentils in warm water for about 10 min, then drain. Cut the chicken legs in half again at the joint and remove the remaining bones and skin. Fry the cut leg pieces in clarified butter on all sides, remove from the cooking pot and set aside. Later, briefly sauté the lentils together with the diced shallot in the same saucepan, extinguish with vinegar and cook completely. Add the poultry stock and heat to boiling point. Later add the sautéed chicken legs and simmer leisurely on low heat. After 15 min. add the diced spring vegetables and the two chicken breasts and cook for another 10 min.
