  Very delicious dish that went down really well. It was very easy to make and very effective. 1 poussin between 2 people was definitely suffifcient so this is also a relatively cheap meal. I made this with mash and roasted veg and used the leftover sauce for the gravy - everyone loved it. I will make again.
