Meanwhile, make the slaw. Combine all the dressing ingredients and mix thoroughly, then combine with the slaw ingredients and mix thoroughly.
To make the gravy, melt the butter and stir in the corn our. Add the wine and bubble and stir for a minute, then gradually add the stock, stirring between each addition. When you’ve added all the stock, add the mushroom ketchup. Taste and season if desired. Add gravy browing if you prefer it to look darker.
When the fillets are ready, cut the baguette into two, then slice open each portion, butter it and add a generous amount of mustard. Add the partridge and coleslaw then pour in a generous amount of gravy. Serve immediately, with any spare coleslaw on the side.
