New Meal Wednesday


After a little break it was time for New Meal Wednesday to start again. This time it was Pan-fried pheasant with orange sauce and rocket salad. This had been choosen as Ali had come back from a supermarket shop the other week with all sorts of different meats that she had got out of the reduced section. So I picked up oranges and rocket on the way home and Ali set about following the receipe. We also did some potato wedges to add to the meal. Somehow we managed to overdo the wedges but never worry onto the pheasant. It was nice but the orange flavour was just a little too much. If we were to try it again it would be with a lot less oranges! I have to admit I wasn't able to finish it all as it became a little over-powering. But trying pheasant for the first time was a success and I did like the meat.
