Façam em pedaços uma galinha bem gorda, e levem-na ao fogo brando, com duas colheres de sopa de gordura, algumas fatias de toucinho, bastante coentro, um punhadinho de salsa, umas folhinhas de hortelã, sal e uma cebola bem grande.

Cut a very fat chicken into pieces, and cook it over low heat, with two soupspoons of fat, a few slices of bacon, lots of cilantro, a bit of parsley, a few mint leaves, salt and a very large onion. Cover it (? abafar means to stiffle, smother, etc) and let it brown, stirring once in a while.

Nesse caldo ponham meia dúzia de ovos batidos, gemas e claras, ao qual se misturam ainda 4 gemas cozidas. Batam tudo muito bem, para que adquira uma certa liga. Ponham a galinha numa travessa funda, sobre fatias de pão, e derramem por cima o caldo de ovos. Coloquem ovos cozidos em volta, e polvilhem com canela.

Cooked and soaked chicken. Cook a chicken seasoned with salt, cilantro, mint, onion and a little vinegar. As soon as it's cooked, remove it from it's juices, which are then strained and placed in another pot to boil. In those juices place half a dozen beaten eggs, yolks and whites, to which you add yet another four cooked yolks. Beat everything very well, such that it aquires a certain bond (ie holds together). Put the chicken in a deep serving tray, over bread slices, and pour on the egg broth. Place cooked eggs all around and sprinkle with cinnamon. []
