Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Cut the dried fruits in half (removing the pits from the dates), and quarter any larger fruits. Place them in a saucepan, add vanilla and a star anise, and pour in white plum wine. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, fish out the star anise and vanilla, and let it sit for twenty minutes to allow the fruits to soak up the wine.
Step 2
Lightly toast the nuts in a dry skillet.
Step 3
Sear the guinea fowl meat in a tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 4
Prepare the broth. In a pot, combine the poultry, coarsely chopped onion, half a celery root, star anise, allspice, and bay leaf, and cover with water. Bring to a boil and simmer on low heat for forty minutes.
Step 5
Place the couscous in a pot, add half a tablespoon of olive oil, pour in the guinea fowl broth (330 ml) and the wine with dried fruits. Cook for about five minutes, until the couscous is ready.
Step 6
Cut the guinea fowl into large pieces, add to the couscous along with half of the nuts, incorporate the butter, and mix thoroughly.
Step 7
Plate using a culinary ring and garnish with nuts. Drizzle with a little lemon juice.
