Roast in a preheated oven at 450 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 300 degrees and roast for a further 15 minutes, basting frequently with a mixture of wine (which should be reduced by 1/3), the orange juice and 4 tablespoons melted butter. Remove the quails to a serving dish and keep warm. Taste the liquid in the roasting pan and adjust seasonings, then pour the liquid off the quails. Pour warmed cognac over the quails and ignite. Serve at once. Serves 4
