Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan or casserole dish over medium heat. Add the pieces of rooster (or chicken) and brown them on all sides. Remove them and reserve.

Return the rooster to the pan, add the red wine, chicken stock, thyme, bay leaf, and season with salt and pepper.

Simmer over low heat for about 45 minutes, until the rooster or chicken is tender.

Drain the potatoes and mash them with the butter and milk to obtain a smooth puree.
