A quick goose dinner

Yesterday, I had been stuck at work a little late, trying to make sense of some new software, had to make a delivery, and had agreed to see Superman Returns with a friend in a couple of hours. So not much time to make dinner.

My options: takeout chinese, frozen pizza, pasta with pesto...

But instead I went for the quickest option: goose stew with red wine Cahors sauce, and truffles mashed potatoes. It was pretty tasty, too. :-)

OK, I'm fortunate to be trying out all my products. But you can do the same. All I had to do was open the can of goose stew, which contains big tender pieces of goose confit and a delicious homestyle sauce, and put it on low heat in a small pan on the stove. Then I cut up a potato, boiled it, added butter and milk to mash it, and stirred in some truffle oil. The whole thing took maybe 15 minutes, less time than it takes to get takeaway or heat the oven and cook a pizza.

And of course it was delicious! Tender meat that I ate with a fork alone, rich sauce and buttery, subtely flavored potatoes. I sat on my balcony with dinner with a smug feeling of luxury.

So now you too can have this! All you need is:
Civet d'Oie cuisiné au vin de Cahors 840g, kr 346 (for 3 portions)
Huile de pépins de raisin arôme Truffe 250ml, kr 122
Potatoes sold separately.
