Broiled Plover with Butter ( Pluviers grilles au Beurre ) Pick, singe, and clean the birds well; cut the heads off, remove the insides, rub the birds over with some melted butter, pepper, and salt; put on a broiler and broil for about eight minutes — four min¬ utes on each side. When done, prepare some buttered toast — one piece for each person; put one bird on top of each, pour over some melted butter and chopped parsley; garnish with watercress in the centre. Serve with broiled curled bacon
