Coq Au Riesling image

A great recipe, compliments of Nigella Lawson. I will quote what she said with reference to the heavy cream. "I tend not to add any cream the first time around, which is why it is listed as optional. But, if a small amount of stew is left over, I add a little heavy cream and make a pasta sauce".
