Partridges in an orange tree.

I know that should be pear tree, but this recipe dosen't contain pears. Partidges are a traditional meal for First Day. If you don't have a way to get a hold of a partridge any small game bird will do.

2 roasted partridges
2 oranges, peeand sliced over your cooking pot
1 cup white wine
Juice and Zest of 1/2 lemon
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt {or to taste}

Using a medium sized pot, combine everything except the birds. Cook over a medium heat for 15 minutes. Cut up the roasted birds and arrange in a stove top proof casserole dish. Pour the
sauce over the birds and cover. Allow to simmer until the meat has been heated through.

Serve with a glass of Milk punch. Mix equal parts hot whiskey with warm milk. For some added flavor, melted butter, nutmeg, cloves or cinnamon can be mixed in according to your taste.
