Leverets should be trussed in the same manner as a hare, but they do not require stuffing. Roast them before a clear fire, and keep them well basted all the time they are cooking. A few minutes before serving, dredge them lightly with flour, and froth them nicely. Serve with plain gravy in the dish, and send to table red-currant jelly with them.
Time: 1/2 to 3/4 hour.
Sufficient for 5 or 6 persons.
Seasonable from May to August, but cheapest in July and August.
