In a large bowl place 6 cups of place of plain flour with 1 and 1/2 cups of salt add enough water to make a semi firm dough ...
Turn out onto a floured bench , use a rolling pin to roll out a out dough in a circular shape .Sprinkle with a little mixed herb. ( Set aside )
Now towel dry a 1.5 kg chicken ,
Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon over the chicken and place the squeezed lemon into the cavity of the chicken .
Make a mixture of ghee or duck fat with you favourite herb ...I used a fresh herb mix ( basil , parsley , oregano and sage ).
Place this mixture under the skin ,( breast side )
Enclose the legs with string .
Now place the chicken on the dough and wrap the dough around to fully cover the chicken .
place in a deep dish .
Bake in an oven at 200deg C for 120 minutes ( cook on the lowest shelf of your oven )
Remove from oven and allow to rest for 30 minutes till you crack the shell and serve immediately .
