Pot-Roast Pheasant Ragu
Requiring only 1 Pheasant to feed four people, this dish is thriftiness at its best. It is such a restorative meal, that can be made ahead of time. The Ragu can be served with Mash, wet Polenta or Pasta. This time i opted for Pasta but if you wanted to try it with quick cook Polenta use 200g for four people.
