Fresh Friday | 5 June

Dear Fresh Friday friends,

This weekend is the King’s birthday long weekend. So I thought it would be nice to have a Royal theme to our menu.

In my research into the food favourites of King Charles, I came across something interesting. One of the King’s favourite dishes is a pheasant crumble pie. The recipe has vegetables and a velouté sauce made with stock and flavoured with sherry, the cooked meat is folded back through the sauce, packed into a dish and topped with a savoury crumble mix made with breadcrumbs, butter, bacon, parmesan cheese and some thyme.

It sounds lovely, but pheasant will blow my budget unfortunately. So, I am swapping the pheasant for chicken! Sounds perfect. Full menu below:

So there you have it, a King’s feast.

Hope to see you on Friday.

Salut, Peter
