This is a traditional French way of making roast chicken - it's very simple and makes its own delicious gravy as it cooks.

Ingredients
1 chicken (approx. 1kg)
115gm carrots, chopped
65gm celery, chopped
4 garlic cloves
375ml chicken stock

Directions
Preheat oven to 220degC. Put the chicken in a deep dish. Crush the garlic cloves and rub over the birds. Surround with the carrots and celery and pour over the stock. Cover the dish with silver foil and cook for an hour and a quarter, or until the chicken is completely cooked through. For the last 15 minutes remove the foil in order to crisp the skin. To make the gravy, drain liquid from dish, skim off any fat and either thicken with a little flour if required, or simply serve in a jug.
