Wild rabbit, langoustine and Jerusalem artichoke crumble with wild garlic crust
Item 1 of 1
James Mackenzie serves up a supreme surf and turf dish, combining wild rabbit from the land and plump langoustines from the sea. The wild garlic and Parmesan pairs perfectly with the filling, while the moreish Jerusalem artichoke crisps round off this rabbit and wild garlic recipe exquisitely.
