No. 905. _Filets de Bécasses à la Talleyrand._

Roast four woodcocks, fillet them, cover each fillet with forcemeat as

in the last, poach them the same, have eight croutons of bread the same

size as the fillets, and the thickness of a five-shilling-piece, pound

the trails from the woodcocks in a mortar, season them lightly, and mix

them with the yolk of one egg, spread it upon the croutons (which you

have previously fried), give them the shape of a dome, put them ten

minutes in the oven, salamander a light colour, make a thin border of

mashed potatoes on your dish, dress the fillets half way round, then the

croutons, put a pint of game sauce (No. 60) in a stewpan with six

spoonfuls of consommé, reduce till it adheres to the back of the spoon,

then add six middling-sized truffles chopped very fine with a little

sugar, sauce over and serve.
