Pour in the water, add the giblets, sliced onions and carrot, the bouquet garni and seasoning.
Put on the lid and bring to high (15 lb) pressure.
Cook for about 20 minutes.
Six minutes before the end of the calculated cookingtime, reduce the pressure quickly and add the other vegetables, sprinkled with salt.
Bring to high (15 lb) pressure again and cook for a further 6 minutes.
Reduce pressure quickly.
Put the chicken with the vegetables in a hot dish sprinkled with parsley.

Add the mixture to the cooker, return it to the heat and bring to the boil, stirring until the gravy thickens.
Serve the gravy separately.
