first one of the autumn

[ginga john 268]

Well here we go, first one this year.

take a pound and a half of venison, cube it up, - shoulder is ok - then add two large onions roughly chopped.

put into a large saucepan with a fair dollop of good olive oil and sizzle until the onions are soft.

then add a chopped chilli - bigger the better- some fresh ginger - sliced - a good shake of Oregano, basil, and a bay leaf or two, dried herbs are fine.

The add carrots, half a sliced cabbage, and maybe turnip - swede etc - whatever you fancy or is laying around

then top up with half a bottle of decent red wine - preferably not beaujolais - put the lid on and simmer very gently for an hour.

then take enough stock -chicken,beef or pork is all ok - to cover the meat and veg and top up, then add some small potatoes new or old but keep the skins on ( dirt is optional !) put the lid back on and simmer until the potatoes are cooked.

 

tastes good, warms you up, and dont cost much

 

this is what it looks like just before you eat it
