I know I have posted something like this before, but thought it worth putting up again with a tasty new twist
Right we are now in the middle of game season so there is quite a bit of it about in the supermarkets at the moment and very tasty it is too. UMMMM pheasant, partridge, wild duck, wood pigeon and venison heaven.
Mab came back from the shops yesterday with a pair of pheasants, fully plucked and oven ready in lovely little bacon waistcoats. So I thought lets do them on a bed of root veg. Into the roasting pan went some chunks of carrot, parsnip and red onion and for a bit of sweetness and extra colour I chopped up some raw beetroot and chucked it in a random. Then some fresh rosemary and thyme and a drizzle of olive oil. birds on the top and in the oven they went at about 180 degrees for around an hour.
With the birds we had some roast spuds dressed with more fresh rosemary and thyme, red cabbage boiled with a hint of sherry vinegar and shamefully a shop bought Yorkshire pud, washed down with some Rose Cava and a good slug of Sloe Gin.
