Preparation and cooking instructions
First cut the cauliflower into quarters, blanch for a few

of bacon. After this drain and when cool dry on paper towel.
Next arrange the bits in a circle in a stew pan.

livers, cut up chicken livers, a carrot, an onion and some
herbs.
Now cover about three-quarters high with some stock and gravy;
put the butter on top and gently boil for one hour. After
this remove the sausage and replace it with two or three partridges
and simmer for three-quarters of an hour.
Meanwhile cut a sausage into thin slices and with this line
a mold.

layers of partridge and cauliflower and steam for about half
