Ingredients (Serves 8-10)

• 3 lbs pheasant meat, cooked and diced
• 4 tbsp butter
• 1 large onion, diced
• 3 carrots, diced
• 3 celery stalks, diced
• 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
• 1/4 cup flour
• 3 cups pheasant stock
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 2 tbsp fresh herbs (thyme, sage)

Method

1. Filling Preparation: Add mushrooms to filling. Sauté your vegetables in butter until soft. Sprinkle with flour and cook for 2 minutes to eliminate the raw taste.

2. Assembly: Fold together the pheasant pieces, vegetables, and peas. Season generously with herbs, salt, and pepper.

3. Crust Application: Drape the pastry over the filling and seal the edges. Cut decorative vents to let steam escape.

4. Baking: Start at 425°F for 15 minutes, then reduce to 350°F for another 25 minutes until golden.
