What To Eat Now

Venison (1x5)

: 13, 2008

Valentine travels to the remote Scottish island of Jura in search of red deer. He is bound to see a stag or two but managing to shoot one for his venison pie may not be quite so simple. Valentine thinks plump partridges are a fabulously tasty autumn treat and a great choice for people who are not partial to birds with too gamey a flavour. Taking inspiration from his travels he cooks up partridge with raz el hanout, a heady mix of spices and seeds popular in Morocco. Finally Valentine gets very excited at the prospect of the crispy skin and juicy breasts of autumn duck, cooking up a delicious dish of mallard with puy lentils and chanterelle mushrooms.
