Pot-Roast Pheasant Ragu
Requiring only 1 Pheasant to feed four people, this dish is thriftiness at its best. It is such a restorative meal, that can be made ahead of time. The Ragu can be served with Mash, wet Polenta or Pasta. This time i opted for Pasta but if you wanted to try it with quick cook Polenta use 200g for four people.

- Once the Pheasant is cooked Set aside to cool before carving the meat off the bone. Pull the Meat into thin strands, picking through to remove any little Bones, Skin and the Bay Leaves and simmer for another 15-20 minutes.
- Cook the Tagliatelle according to packet instruction in plenty of boiling salted water. Drain and plate up, dolloping over generous spoonfuls of the sauce and a few gratings of Parmesan, if you fancy.
