1/4 c Margarine
1/2 ts Salt

Cooking:

and fasten with skewers. Place in roasting pan and prick the birds
so that fat will drain off. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake
about 1/2 hour at about 400 F to render off fat. Remove the birds
from the oven and pour off the fat. Lower the oven to 350 F, return
the birds to the oven, and bake for about 1-1/2 hours more. Remove
the turrs from the roasting pan Add water to the roasting pan and
make gravy by adding flour thickening.

20 minutes until brown.

Take a small jar with a cover. Place 1/4 cup of cold water in the
jar. On top of the water place 2 tb of flour. Place the cover on
the jar and shake until the mixture is smooth Add to liquid from
meat to make it thicker.
Pastry:
Cut margarine into flour, baking powder, and salt until the mixture
resembles bread crumbs. Sprinkle in water, 1 tb at a time and mix.
