Roasted stuffed partridge with gin and juniper sauce

If you don’t want to be overwhelmed this Christmas by a large bird and you don’t want to cope with the leftovers, then this is ideal for Christmas lunch if you are going to be just a few. Partridge has a delicate tender flesh and is full of flavour. A whole bird serves one person. I buy mine from Coakley Green in Swansea Market but any good game dealer will sell partridge ready to cook.

Serves 4:

For the stuffing:
1 tbs olive oil
50 g white breadcrumbs
parsley thyme and sage
20g chopped hazelnuts
1 large shallot, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
4 dried apricots
Zest of 1 orange
Salt and pepper

For the partridge:
2 birds
4 streaky bacon rashers
1 small onion thickly sliced
•   Mix the bread in food processor with the herbs and the apricots. Add the chopped hazelnuts.
•   Melt the butter and soften the shallot and garlic.
•   Add to the stuffing mix.
•   Wash and dry and bone the birds and fill with the stuffing, tie up and cover with the bacon.
•   Roast at 200 degrees for about 15 minutes. Leave the birds to rest while you make the sauce.
•   Heat the pan on the hob and mix in the flour.
•   Add the gin and reduce a little then add the stock. Strain.
•   Take the legs and the breasts off the bird and slice each breast into 3 slices.
•   Arrange some purée on 2 plates and arrange the partridge on top with the bacon. Drizzle the sauce around it.

For the sauce, fry off 1 chopped onion, 1 chopped carrot, add 50 ml red wine vinegar, 250 ml red wine, 250 ml stock, 1 teasp tomato purée, 1 tbs redcurrant jelly, zest of an orange and some juniper berries. Cook for an hour, strain and reduce until you have the right consistency.
