With my cousin Jen and her husband Nigel over for the weekend, it is great excuse to try some ideas out.  I got a couple pigeons from Gales (Filton, Bristol) – they removed the breasts but gave me the full birds.  Did a starter of pan-fried pigeon breast with Jerusalem artichoke pure and pea oil – hadn’t made a flavoured oil before, but worked out well (though not quite enough colour – will have to experiment a little more with that).  I love pigeon!   For main got a rump of lamb (from Traditional Meats of Thornbury, Bristol), pan fried with roasted beans, herb roasted root veg, and a red wine and red-current reduction – turned out well but we weren’t eating it until midnight!  K made a chocolate brownie pavlova – nice!
