Do any of you good guys and gals have a decent recipe for tandoori pheasant?
My wife and I shoot flying game and our golden rule is we eat what we shoot. Pheasant can be so dry and I have seen a number of celebrity chef recipes that concentrate purely on the breast meat, (cooked on the stove top!) which is such a waste.
If there is a good recipe for oven/tandoori pheasant I would be most grateful.

Can't help with a tandoori recipe, I am afraid, but Khanh & I also eat a lot of game (it's far cheaper around here than farmed animals) so I can at least offer you my suggestions for keeping it moist :
1) Wrap the entire bird in streaky bacon, then wrap in foil;
2) Cook in a covered roasting tin at about 170/180 (fan-assisted) for 25 minutes breast-up;
3) Cook for a further 20 minutes breast-down;
4) Remove foil and cook for a further ten minutes breast-up;
5) Remove bacon, baste well (I am assuming that you are roasting potatoes in the same tin with excess dripping), and cook for a further five minutes breast-up with no cover on roasting tin.
Khanh & I then eat one half of the pheasant with roast Rooster potatoes and bread sauce (she prefers the leg, I the breast), and the other half we cook a day or two later in a red wine sauce with field mushrooms, shallots, stein pilzen, and one pack of Corbell J

Hi T63
No Tandoori Pheasant here, but you could just use any Tandoori marinade.
Also there's plenty of google links:-
