Cut onion, celery and carrot into mirepoix. Lightly stew the
vegetables in butter. Add veal stock, Rodenbach (beer) and a
bouquet garni of parsley stems, thyme and bay leaf. Let it
simmer for 15 minutes under cover. Sieve, add a spoonful of
honey and allow to reduce for a few minutes. Thicken the
sauce if desired.
Season the quail fillets with salt and pepper and fry them in a
little butter. Leave a few minutes covered on low heat.
Place a pre-cut fillet on the plate and pour on the sauce.
In the photo: the dish is accompanied by vegetable chips
(carrot and parsnip). You fry them twice, like normal potato
fries.
