A favourite recipe for Woodcock from The Sporting Lodge
1 Press the legs and wings together, draw the head round and run the beak through where the legs and wings cross.
2 Brush the birds with melted butter and tie a piece of fat bacon round each bird. Place in a casserole with some melted butter, season and baste with butter.
3 Cook in a hot oven for 20 –30 minutes, basting frequently.
4 Cut the birds in half and serve on croutons of fried bread or toast and serve with a clear gravy made from the cooking juices and flavoured with a squeeze of lemon.
