PANCETTA PARTRIDGE IN WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Place partridge fillets, one at a time, between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and tenderize by tapping with a rolling pin; set aside.
• Heat butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Saute mushrooms, onion, and garlic until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fill a large bowl with ice and cold water. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add spinach and cook, uncovered, until it turns bright green, about 30 seconds. Drain in a colander and immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes to stop the cooking process. Drain and dice.
• Stir cold water gradually into gravy mix in a small saucepan using a whisk. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until gravy comes to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat and mix wine, cream, and thyme into gravy; gravy will thicken upon standing.
• Lay tenderized fillets on a cutting board and place a thin layer of blanched spinach on top. Top with a thin layer of sauteed mushrooms, followed by 1 piece of pancetta. Roll and fold fillets, securing with toothpicks. Place into a small roasting pan. Pour gravy over meat until completely immersed.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink and juices run clear, about 45 minutes.

PARTRIDGE POT ROAST

Steps:

• In a large frying pan melt the butter over moderate heat.
• When the foam subsides, add the onions and carrots and cook stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the onions are soft and translucent, but not brown.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer the vegetables to a large flameproof casserole.
• Set aside.
• Add the bacon and mushrooms to the pan and cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp and has rendered most of its fat.
• With a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon mixture to the casserole.
• Place the partridges in the pan and cook, turning them occasionally, for 6 to 8 minutes, or until they are lightly and evenly browned.
• Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the partridges to the casserole.
• Add the salt, pepper and bouquet garni.
• Pour the beef stock and red wine over the partridges.
• Place the casserole over high heat and bring the liquid to the boil.
• Reduce the heat to low, cover the casserole and cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour, or until the partridges are tender when pierced with the point of a sharp knife.
• Remove the casserole from the heat.
• Using tongs or two large spoons, remove the partridges from the casserole.
• Cut each partridge into 4 pieces, and keep warm.
• Strain the cooking liquid and set the vegetables aside to keep warm.
• Remove and discard the bouquet garni.
• Return the strained cooking liquid to the casserole.
• Return the casserole to high heat and boil, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the cooking liquid has reduced by about one-third.
• Reduce the heat to low.
• Gradually stir in the BEURRE MANIE*, a small knob at a time and continue cooking, whisking constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the sauce is smooth and has thickened.
• (*BEURREMANIE, is kneaded butter and is used to thicken stews and sauces. It is added in small knobs to the boiling liquid, which is then whisked until the butter melts and the sauce thickens.)*TO MAKE BEURRE MANIE: Mix together equal amounts of softened butter and flour (soften the butter with a fork to incorporate the flour) Replace the partridges and vegetables in the casserole and stir in the chopped parsley.
• Cook for a further 2 to 3 minutes or until the pot roast is piping hot.
• Remove the casserole from the heat and serve immediately.

PARTRIDGE WITH WINE & CINNAMON

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large deep frying pan and quickly brown the partridges all over, then remove. Add the garlic and fry until softened. Pour in the wine, bubble over a high heat, then add tomato purée, honey, stock, olives, cinnamon and seasoning, plus 150ml water. Return the birds to the pan, then cover and simmer over a low heat for 20 mins.
• Stir in the rest of the ingredients (plus water if needed). Cover and simmer for 20 mins until tender. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with toasts.

PARTRIDGE IN WHITE WINE SAUCE RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in the pressure cooker and brown the partridges on all sides. Sprinkle them with salt, pepper, thyme, basil and parsley. Stir in the flour, then pour in the wine and stock. Place the lid on the cooker and bring to high pressure (15 lb), then lower heat and cook for 9 minutes. Release the pressure quickly (with cold water). Remove the lid, add the mushrooms and simmer for 2 minutes, uncovered. Split the partridges in half and serve, spooning over the sauce and mushrooms. This makes a lovely thick gravy. If you want a thinner one, just add a little more stock or water when you simmer the mushrooms.

SEITAN WITH PORTABELLAS IN WHITE WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil and butter in medium skillet over medium heat until butter melts.
• Add shallots and garlic, stir to coat and cook 1 minute.
• Reduce heat to medium low; add sliced portobellos, herbs, salt, and pepper; cook until the mushrooms are cooked through, about 10 min, stirring occasionally.
• Add reserved seitan broth, wine, cream, and parmesan; increase heat to medium.
• Simmer for 30 minutes or until the seitan has absorbed the flavor of the broth and the liquid has reduced, stirring occasionally.
• Add to linguine and heat a few minutes.
• Note: the recipe as written gives only a little thin sauce at the end - if you want a "saucier" version, double the herbs, wine, and cream when you add them. If you did this you could add corn starch to thicken at the end of cooking.

NORTHERN ONTARIO PARTRIDGE (RUFFED GROUSE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the slices of bacon in the skillet and fry until they have released their juices, but are not crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside. Place the partridge breast halves into the pan, and brown them quickly, about 2 minutes per side.
• Remove the partridge pieces, and wrap each one with two slices of bacon. Secure with toothpicks. Pour enough of the drippings from the skillet into a baking dish to cover the bottom. Place the partridge pieces into the dish along with the chicken broth, white wine, shallots, garlic, salt and black pepper.
• Roast uncovered for 45 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove drippings from the baking dish using a turkey baster, and place in a saucepan. Whisk in the flour, and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. Serve gravy with partridge.
