Roast Partridge with mushroom farci, braised red cabbage and wet polenta

I went home last week for a few days and as usual the fridge was empty, all my mum seems to eat during the week is hummus and cheese and the occasional leftover from the weekend. I found some partridges in the freezer and since I hardly ever cook game I thought I would invent something. I had a look at lots of different recipes but couldn't find one that I really liked so I made this one up. It was really really delicious and an amazing wintery mixture of flavours. You could do it with any other game birds or venison would also be pretty good. Mushroom farci 8 mushrooms any kind you like, diced into small cubes a few sprigs of fresh thyme leaves 1 large clove of garlic finely chopped glug white wine Put a splash of oil and a knob of butter in a pan and when hot add the garlic and stir for a few seconds and add the mushrooms and thyme. Cook off for a few minutes and then add a splash of wine and cook until most of the liquid has been absorbed back into the mushrooms and then take of
