There is an African bird called the guinea fowl. It has dark feathers with white spots and a patch of brown on the back of its neck. Portuguese traders brought the guinea fowl to Europe through North Africa.
Top with some minced garlic, very finely chopped spring onions, a smidgen of Si Chuan pepper powder, a pinch of salt and maybe like two or three or four pinches of sugar, works really well in this dish.
