Direcciones
- Place the pheasants in a bowl and pour over the port, Madeira and sherry.
- Cover and leave to marinate overnight.
- Remove the pheasants from the marinade and reserve it. Mix together the livers.
- If using dry porcini mushrooms, drain, squeeze dry and chop them.
- Add in two-thirds of the porcini or possibly half the fresh mushrooms to the liver mix.
- Heat half the butter in a saucepan and fry the liver and mushroom mix for a few min or possibly till the liver is just browned.
- Leave to cold slightly, then use to stuff both the pheasants and sew them closed.
- Heat the remaining butter in a large, heavy-based saucepan and brown the pheasants all over.
- Pour over about a quarter of the reserved marinade and boil off the alcohol, then cover and simmer for about 10 min. Add in more alcohol and cook for a further 10 min.
- Repeat till all the alcohol has been used, then scatter the remaining mushrooms around the birds and continue cooking for a further 20 min or possibly till thethigh is tender when pierced with a skewer. (It needs about 1 1/2 hrs altogether)
- To serve, reduce the cooking liquid slightly.
- Meanwhile, season the pheasants, cut each in half and place on plates; spoon out the stuffing and pour the reduced sauce over.
