  • Time : 1 hour

Ingredients for Roasted Young Partridges :

  • 4 young partridges
  • 1 onion with 2 cloves spiked in it
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 80 g butter
  • rosemary
  • sage
  • 8 grape leaves (available canned)
  • 4 slices white bread

Technical stages for Roasted Young Partridges :

  • If the partridges are not readied, hollow them out and flamb them, setting the liver, gizzard and heart aside.
  • Boil those gibblets in a bit of water with the onion, bay leaf, salt and pepper, for about 20 minutes. Chop very finely and set aside.
  • Put a knob of butter inside the birds; barder them, slipping a rosemary sprig and a sage leaf under the bard. Wrap each partridge with 1 or 2 grape leaves, tie with a roasting string.
  • Put in a preheated oven at 220°C or 428°F and bake for 20 minutes. 5 minutes before the end, remove the bard and grape leaves to let the partridges take their full color.
  • Meanwhile, toast the 4 slices of bread in the remaining butter and spread them with the gizzard puree.
  • Arrange the young partridges on those canapes and baste with their juice.
