    You would have to well grease the naked chef Jamie Oliver for him to get inside the turkey before he started cooking the duck

    In those Christmases of long ago, before jogging was invented, tables groaned under a monster concoction called 'Great Pye'. In Medieval days it was always the centrepiece at the Royal Christmas table, assuming the table was strong enough. Contained beneath inch-thick, armour-plated pastry was a whole turkey stuffed with a whole goose, stuffed with a chicken, stuffed with a partridge, stuffed with a pigeon. Thrown in for good measure, in case anyone complained they weren't getting enough, was a hare, a few wild duck and a couple of woodcock. http://www.cards2order.com/infoWould.asp?ID=18

    I believe the answer is 'Cockatrice' - the recipe for which can be found in Mary Berry's Cook Now - Eat Later book

    'Engastraton' is the technical term.
