First deer

[Gimli 0]

Just home made sloe gin (London dry gin, sugar and sloe berries left to mix - shaking every couple of days - for 3 months and then filtered), fresh sage leaves and rosemary with olive oil. Flatten venison as much as possible, cover with sloe gin and olive oil and mix in bruised herbs. leave for 24 hours and then cook slowly in oven, discarding marinade before cooking.

 

I'll have the rabbits roasted slowly with masses of fresh herbs and olive oil plus a bit of worcester sauce and tabasco.

 

Is sambar the Indian deer species?

thanks gimli,my partners parents came from wales,she raves about this sloe gin that her dad used to make ,i did a mild bit of looking for sloe berries a little while ago but no luck now you have urged me to search some more and attempt to make sloe gin .could buy some i guess but not the same as making your own.yes our sambar is the indian variety although it has taken extremely well to our climate . whilst we have large numbers they are very ellusive.i hunt every weekend ,mostly with scent trailling hounds,beagles or bloodhounds otherwise stalking.thanks for sharing your recipes regards,scrubworm.
