Mix sour cream with burgundy and the herbs. Pour the mixture carefully
beside the hens into the pot. Close the pot and let the whole stew for 60

should be as soft as butter. Remove the hens and pour out the sauce into
another pot. Put hens back and brown them with open lid for 10 minutes at
220    degree F (428 F). Meanwhile strain the sauce through a sieve.
Add, butter, mushroom and brandy. If you want bind the sauce with a bit of

bacon. Do not bind with flour. Exchange joghurt for sour cream. Posted to
