Mauviettes à la Favre.—Bone the larks, put a large
oyster into each bird, truss the latter into shape for
roasting, skewering a slitted slice of fat bacon over
each little breast, and place each on a well-
washed and fried mushroom. Previously seasoned
with black pepper, salt, and a morsel of butter;
cook the birds and the mushrooms on a buttered
baking tin in the oven for fifteen minutes; have
ready little rounds of buttered toast, seasoned with
pepper and salt, set each of these on a paper case
previously oiled and fried, then place the mushrooms
and the birds on this toast. Pour a little maître
d'hôtel butter mixed with the warmed oyster liquor
over each bird, and serve with seasoned watercress
in the centre, one bird per guest.
