Answer 1

Home CookingGlazed Cornish Game Hens

Ingredients
Fresh Curry Powder:
1/4 tsp fennel seeds
1/4 tsp coriander seeds
3 cardamom pods, seeds only
Ground ginger to taste
Cinnamon to taste
Cumin seed to taste
1/4 to 1/2 tsp dried red chiles, crushed
1/4 tsp turmeric

Main Dish:
2 Rock Cornish game hens (1 pound each)
1/4 cup corn syrup
1 tbsp prepared mustard (Dijon or spicy)
1 small garlic clove, peeled and finely chopped
Salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Juice of 1/2 lemon (reserve other half)

Instructions
To make the curry powder, grind the spices together until they resemble a coarse powder, either with a mortar and pestle or in a clean electric coffee grinder.

If the hens are frozen, thaw overnight in refrigerator. Rinse hens with cold water; pat dry.

In small bowl, combine curry powder with syrup, mustard, garlic, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Cut reserved lemon half in half again; place inside hens. If desired, truss (tie or skewer) hens, to secure legs. Line a shallow roasting pan with foil, dull side facing up, for easy cleanup. Place hens in pan and brush with some of the glaze. Reserve remainder of glaze for frequent basting.

Bake in oven 1 hour or longer, until juices run clear (meat should still be juicy). Baste often for crispy, golden skin. Halfway through baking, cover legs and wing tips with foil to prevent scorching.

Serve with rice and stir-fried vegetables.
