Roasted Partridges

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point. The book gives no cooking times either; the times in the steps were added in transcription, so check for doneness rather than trusting the clock.

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Clean the partridges and remove any gills.

  3. Season the partridges with coarse sea salt.

  4. Place the partridges in a roasting pan and add butter.

  5. Roast in the oven until cooked through, about 25-30 minutes.

  6. Serve hot.
