  • tonight i start preparing the food for my dad's birthday meal tomorrow

    game pie - will be done with pheasant and whatever my local butcher has

    there is a rich chicken stock i made a few weeks ago (been kept in the freezer) and I shall reduce some red wine to remove the alcohol before cooking the meat and some onions with bay leaves from the garden and a few juniper berries in the slow cooker over night

    will then sift through, remove all the bones and then reduce the cooking juices

    a few nice mushrooms to be gently sauteed before going into the pie mixture and then a lid on top

    will roast some parsnips and carrots - possibly finish them off with a little truffle honey as a light glaze

    creamy mash and some spring greens
