BURNISHED POTATO NUGGETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Place potatoes in a large pot and pour in water to cover by 2". Season water generously with salt and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer gently until potatoes are tender on the outside but still very firm in the center, 8-10 minutes.
• Pour off water in pot, holding potatoes back. Toss potatoes just enough to rough up their outsides and give them a floury starchy coating (do not toss so vigorously that they fall apart); season with salt.
• Meanwhile, combine both oils in a large roasting pan and heat in oven 10 minutes.
• Carefully remove pan from oven; add potatoes, turning each one to coat and moisten exterior. Return pan to oven and roast potatoes, turning every 10 minutes, for 30 minutes. Toss in garlic and rosemary and cook until potatoes are deep golden brown on most of their sides, 8-10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to a platter and serve with roasted garlic and rosemary alongside.

PHEASANT NUGGETS

Steps:

• Preheat a deep fryer for 375 to 400 degrees F (190 to 200 degrees C).
• Sprinkle the pheasant meat with meat tenderizer and pound lightly with a mallet to make all the pieces uniform and the same thickness. Using a medium bowl, combine the flour, seasoned salt, pepper, potato flakes and crushed cracker crumbs. Mix well and set aside.
• In a separate medium bowl, combine the egg and the milk and whisk until smooth. Dip the pheasant meat strips into the egg mixture then dredge each strip into the flour mixture. Coat well and thoroughly and lay out on a plate so the strips can be easily transferred to the deep fryer.
• Place the strips in a deep fryer set at 375 to 400 degrees F (190 to 200 degrees C) until golden brown. (Note: You can also pan fry these in a skillet over medium high to high heat with 1 cup oil for pan frying, but you may need to flip them if they are not submerged in oil.)
