Make a glaze with olive oil, cayenne pepper,
mill pepper, salt, Worchester sauce, acacia
honey and tomato paste. Put this preparation
in a plastic freezer bag together with the quail
and let it marinate for an hour at room
temperature.
Meanwhile, make red cabbage puree with
prunes. Cut the red cabbage into not too fine
brunoise. Simmer an onion and some crushed
garlic and add the brunoise. Moisten with red
balsamic vinegar. Add juniper berries and
cloves in a tea bag. Add a bouquet garni of bay
leaf, thyme and parsley stems.
glazed quail with
red cabbage puree
and plum
Pour in a glass of red wine and red Porto.
Simmer for 45 minutes. Then add the pitted soft
plums. Simmer for another 15 minutes and
check whether the cabbage is cooked enough.
Remove the herbs from the cooking pot and
mash. Cut the tricolor mix of carrots on strings,
keep them separate and steam them until
done.
Remove the quails from the bag and place
them in an oven dish. Cover with the rest of the
glaze. Preheat the oven to 185°C and bake the
quails until tender and crispy in about 30
minutes. Cut in half before serving.
