    It's dropping to 40F (4.4C) at night here, so I'd say that's still in season with canned asparagus. XD

    Title: Glazed Cornish Game Hens
    Categories: Game, Hens
    Yield: 1 servings

    MMMMM---------------------FRESH CURRY POWDER--------------------------
    1/4 ts Fennel seeds
    1 ts Coriander seeds
    3 Cardamom pods; seeds of
    Ground ginger; to taste
    Cinnamon; to taste
    Cumin seed; to taste
    1/4 ts Crushed dried red chiles;
    - up to 1/2 ts
    1/4 ts Turmeric

    MMMMM----------------------------HENS---------------------------------
    2 lb Rock Cornish game hens (2)
    1 c Honey
    1 tb Dijon or
    - spicy prepared mustard
    1 cl Garlic; finely chopped
    Salt
    Black pepper;
    - freshly ground, to taste
    1/2 Lemon; juice of,
    - reserve other half

    Curry Powder:

    Grind the spices together until they resemble a coarse powder, either
    with a mortar and pestle or in a clean electric coffee grinder If the
    hens are frozen, thaw overnight in refrigerator Rinse hens with cold
    water; pat diy. In small bowl, combine curry powder with syrup,
    mustard, garlic, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Preheat oven to
    375?F.

    Cut reserved lemon half in half again; place inside hens. If desired,
    truss (tie or skewer) hens, to secure legs. Line a shallow roasting
    pan with foil, dull side facing up, for easy cleanup. Place hens in
    pan and brush with some of the glaze. Reserve remainder of glaze for
    frequent basting. Bake in oven 1 hour or longer, until juices run
    clear. Meat should still be juicy. Baste often for crispy, golden
    skin. Halfway through baking, cover legs and wing tips with foil to
    prevent scorching. Serve with rice and stir-fried vegetables.

    Diane's Notes:

    The original recipe calls for corn syrup rather than honey. The first
    time I made this, I didn't have any corn syrup so I used honey
    instead, and I liked it so much I use honey every time now.
