Pheasant is a wonderful meat…and roast pheasant with bread sauce infused with a muslin of sage leaves my absolute favourite…but who can roast a pheasant and stop it going dry (well…I can and I am sure you can too…but frankly most people can’t..! Goodness…aren’t we superior!)
I bought some pheasant breasts and marinaded them on/since Tuesday in a fiery Tandoori (misnomer, I know) yoghurt mix and cooked them – almost flash grilled them – on the GeoFo tonight. I had them with fresh spinach which I mixed with a little Greek yoghurt…at which point I just went mad with the Indian/moroccan spices, turfing a little of everything it, and sousing it all with lemon juice. It was magic! Home invented Indian food I think is becoming my food ‘du jour’ ! But don’t tell the poor Indians !!
Pudding I mixed a Waitrose Apple Strudel with a ripe Kaki fruit….the mix was interesting but actually worked quite well. And the colour scheme was quite fun too!

This sounds yum yum yum!
Mmm, Have never cooked pheasant, looks fiery indian ( is it naturaly pink? or is this the marinade), and the color of that sauce is madness, certainly worth waiting for.
wait, i nearly missed this one- A p(h)easant ?
Peasant…Pheasant… peasants are revolting..etc etc !
The redness was quite interesting…someone suggested to add some beetroot juice to the marinade for the colour. Worked quite well !
The colour is also a little to do with the saturation button in Picasa…I’ve got a proper camera to do these now…trying to outdo Gomi !! Fat chance!
