Ingredients

Serving 2
  For the bubble & squeak
200g Roast partridge
1kg Red skin potatoes
1x Small savoy cabbage
Milk
Butter
Salt & pepper
  For the ale gravy
200ml Good quality ale
200ml Game stock (or chicken/beef)
4 tsp Gravy granules

Equipment

Saucepan
Frying pan

1. Begin the gravy

Pour the ale into a saucepan and reduce by half. Add the game stock, then return to a gentle simmer.

2. Peel & boil the potatoes

To make the bubble and squeak, Peel and boil the red skin potatoes until soft and mash them up with butter and milk until smooth. Season with pepper and salt.

3. Boil cabbage

Roughly chop the savoy cabbage and cook in a pan of salted boiling water until soft. Drain, add this to the mashed potato and mix well.

4. Reheat leftover partridge

Rehear the left over partridge by wrapping in tin foil and cooking in the oven set 160°C for 15mins.  If you have roasted a partridge for the dish, simply carve.

5. Thicken gravy

Thicken the ale and stock with the gravy granules.

6. Plate up

To serve, place the bubble and squeak in the centre of your plates and top with the partridge. Cover with a good helping of gravy, with extra in a jug on the side.
