Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter and the
oil in a skillet over a moderate heat and brown the rabbit, turning frequently.
Season the meat with salt and pepper. Stir in the onions and brandy.
Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 30-40 minutes, turning the
rabbit at 10 minute intervals. In a small bowl, cream together the
butter and flour until combined. Remove the rabbit from the skillet
and keep warm. Stir the crème fraiche and chicken stock into
the skillet and boil hard until reduced by one third. Drop pieces
of the butter flour mixture into the boiling sauce, whisking rapidly.
If the sauce is too thick, thin it out with 1 tablespoon of boiling water.
Season the sauce with salt and pepper. Place the rabbit pieces on
a serving platter and serve the sauce on the side.
