Directions
Set oven at 350℉ (180℃)..
Wipe the pheasants, season, and rub well all over with butter.
Put a knob of butter inside each bird. Place the pheasants breast side down in deep pot roaster or flameproof casserole.
Cover and cook with stock and buttered paper.
Cook for 1 to 1¼ hrs until tender turning the birds breast side up after 25 minutes.
When cooked remove the pheasants and keep hot.
Boil the remaining liquid to reduce a little and strain into a saucepan.
Blend the arrowroot with a little water and then stir into the hot stock.
Bring to a boil and stir until sauce thickens and clears.
Add the grapes, cream and lemon juice, then heat through without boiling.
Check the seasoning.
Arrange the pheasants on a serving dish, spoon the sauce over and serve.
