Double false Hare Like Hunter

Despite the best venison genus, venison is always contaminated with lead. . Already with 10 game meals / year one counts as a "high consumer" of game meat, but is still in the "green area". Game is not at all suitable for pregnant women and small children. An alternative is meat from gattered game (but has no source) or imported meat from farmed game (TK from New Zealand), which I do not want. You can google more on this topic! We love to eat game dishes, but we don't want to enjoy them too often. Hence the idea of ​​preparing domestic rabbit legs like hare legs. It was a real treat.

Rinse dry mushrooms 1 day beforehand and soak in a little lukewarm water. Parry the legs, which are kept at room temperature, rinse, pat dry, season with salt, pepper and season with paprika and wild herbs. Peel, quarter and slice the onions. Peel the garlic and leave it in the piece. Rinse the thyme sprigs, pat dry and pluck the leaves. Prepare the remaining ingredients.

Heat the oil moderately in a suitable saucepan and fry the legs vigorously in it, remove the legs and keep them warm. Now sauté the onions, garlic, thyme leaves, juniper berries and the tomato paste. Top up with the game stock, add the Bessen Genever, bring to the boil, add the legs back to the stock, reduce the heat and simmer with the lid on for 60 minutes. Stir every now and then and fill up with the mushroom soaking water (without sediment). Now add the soaked mushrooms and cook for 15 minutes. Remove the garlic and juniper berries. Season to taste with salt and pepper. The sauce now had the right consistency. I also prepared Thuringian Sunday dumplings and Brussels sprouts.

Arrange 1 leg each with sauce, 2 dumplings, Brussels sprouts and 1/2 Williams Christ pear, filled with wild lingonberries (canned food) decoratively on preheated dinner plates and enjoy.
