INSTRUCTIONS
From "The Gastronomy of Spain and Portugal," by Maite Manjon. Put the birds in a casserole with all remaining ingredients except the chocolate and potato slices, inserting the whole cloves into the head of garlic. Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes to an hour, shaking the casserole at intervals and adding a little more wine, if necessary. Remove the partridges and place on a heated serving platter. Add the chocolate to the contents of the casserole, cook for 5 minutes, then rub the sauce through a sieve with a wooden spoon or process in a blender or food processor. Arrange the slices of fried potato around the birds, then pour on the sauce so that it completely covers the birds.
