My favourite for a pie filling or a stew is this:-

Use back legs and fillets only and take the meat off the bone. Fry the meat in Olive Oil and black pepper until cooked add a good glassfull of red wine diced potato ,carrot and swede.You can then add onion,leeks(my preference) or shallots but not all 3 unless thats your taste.Cover all the veg with water and simmer for about an hour and keep checking the water level so it doesn't boil dry.

One thing tho if you buy cheap red wine to cook with don't forget you might have to drink the rest of the bottle yourself ...have you tasted cheap red wine lately :sick:

I seperate the rear legs, front legs and the saddle, throw it all in a big casserole dish with some chopped up potatoes, carrots, onion, swede and any other veg, two stock cubes, salt and pepper and a can of beer then slow cook at 130 degrees for most of the day. Nice caserole! Or you can take the meat of the bone before cooking. And chuck in a few dumplings for half hour at the end to!

 

Another one is to cut the meat up into small bite size chunks (think KFC popcorn chicken) Boil unitl pretty much cooked (bout 25 minutes)or just fry, then roll them all in flour, dip in whisked egg, and then roll in a mixture of breadcrumbs and cajun spice. Then just deep fry until golden brown. Tastes jsut like popcorn chicken things from KFC.

 

Or just chuck the legs on a bbq with a sprinkling of cajun spice etc. All very nice.

 

Basically you can chop it up and treat as chicken. I do stir fries, curries, casseroles, pies, pasties and even stuffed and roasted a whole one in the winter.
