Breast is best… a plump woodpigeon starter

Pan-fried pigeon breast with air-dried ham and Brie de Meaux with truffles

Here’s a perfect woodpigeon breast, wrapped lovingly in locally artisan air-cured ham, and filled with a decadent slice of Brie de Meaux with a truffle centre. Flash fried and served simply on a bed of watercress and baby spinach, garnished with a Meaux mustard and balsamic vinaigrette. A rich but perfectly balanced starter… ideal for the Christmas feast.
