Cooking with Jonny69: Game stew with stilton dumplings

[alexakasloth]

Looks delicious, what mix of beef or game did you use?

Looks delicious. Beats the Frey Bentos pie and chips I'm having later.

 

[Jonny69]

Ah, that was delicious

Game pie mix off the butcher counter at Sainsburys. It's partridge, pheasant, pigeon and rabbit. I don't think I've seen it before and it's probably seasonal.

Looks tasty Jonny!

I had Pigeon Strogonoff for my dinner last time, was yummy

* Two Pigeon Breasts
* Sliced Onion
* Sliced Red Peppers
* Half a can of chopped tomatoes
* Some parsley

Then served up with rice, couldn't realy get much fresher either tbh

It is a seasonal line. On my counter it is Venison, Pigeon and Pheasant. Same price though.

Sainsbury's Meat & Fish counters now have lines based on the region the store is in. So apart from the usual Scotch or Aberdeen Angus Beef for example, there will be beef from somewhere near where you live. In my case [Manchester] we get Lancashire beef. The same applies to Lamb and Pork. They are generally sourced from somewhere nearby.

Getting back on topic a little, would the stew be aided in any way by lobbing some veg in. I find stews/casseroles are a good way of getting rid of some of the older veg lurking in the fridge.

One must appreciate the effort that goes in to the natural layout on some of these photos. No pre-prep here

Looks good Jonny, just a shame I don't like the gamey flavour

I was too hungry to take photos

I wouldn't use chicken stock cubes. Order of preference would be home made stock, supermarket fresh stock, then beef stock cubes. Stock cubes tend to be a bit salty, especially the chicken ones

Mmm, Mr Remy Martin... Top stuff, use it myself for cooking though I have to cringe myself when I dont have anything else in the cupboard - its too good for cooking!

 

[barnettgs]

Looks mouth-watering to me...yum!

How did you learn all the stuff?

 

[Jonny69]

Just practice, and I like eating

Which wine did you use?

I'd expect something with plenty of body, possibly an older wine to get the slightly heavier taste?

At a guess I would say a Californian Zinfandel, possibly the Gallo Family Vineyards Turning Leaf 2006?
That's a complete guess though

 

[NickK]

I blame the 5 mile run!

 

[Sanguinnus]

tasty!

Can't wait for the commemoration feast at college next Friday. Eight courses, three of which are game meat .

Looks good Johnny!

Gallo Family Vineyards Turning Leaf 2006?

Except Gallo tastes like ****.
