the cavity of each hen. Arrange the remaining
shallots and the Jerusalem artichokes in the pan so
that they touch as little as possible. Rub the oil
over the hens, shallots and Jerusalem artichokes and
the pan. Sprinkle salt and pepper pver everything.
Roast for 8 minutes. Move hens around and turn
vegetables with a wooden spatula so they won't stick.

Remove hens and vegetables to a serving platter or
individual plates. Tilt the pan and remove any grease.
Put pan over low heat, add the wine and tomatoes, and

spoon. Taste for salt and pepper. Put warm sauce
