Stewed Rabbit With Broad Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Wash the rabbits in cold water and debone them by cutting at the joints like you would a chicken. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
• Place the cooking oil in a stewing pot (deep iron pot with a lid, if possible). When the oil is hot, place the rabbit pieces in the pot and let brown, about 5 minutes on each side. Once both sides are nicely seared, remove the pieces and set aside.
• Reduce the heat and add the flour to the pot and stir frequently until the mixture is brown, about 3 minutes. Be careful not to burn. Once the flour is brown, throw in the garlic, herb bouquet and the onion. Stir frequently and cook for about 5 minutes. Place the seared rabbit back into the pot, along with the mushrooms. Cook for another 5 minutes. Add the wine and water to the pot and bring it back to a boil. Once it has boiled, reduce the heat and bring the liquid to a simmer. Place a tightly fitting lid on the pot, and let simmer for about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper again and continue to simmer until the rabbit is tender, about another hour. Serve hot over something like rice or mashed potatoes.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish. Brown the rabbit in batches, then transfer to a plate. Add the bacon and fry until crisp. Reduce the heat to low, throw in the vegetables and sweat for 15 mins until soft but not brown. Add the flour and cook for a few mins.
• Increase the heat again, pour in the ale and boil hard, scraping the base of the dish, until well reduced. Return the rabbit to the dish with the herbs, stock and some seasoning. Cover and very gently simmer on the hob for 2 hrs or until the rabbit is really tender and the sauce thickened. Top up with water occasionally, if needed.
• Stir the broad beans through the stew 5 mins before serving.

Steps:

• For the sausage:
• Mix all the ingredients in a large bowl. Grind the mixture in a meat grinder fitted with a 1/4-inch die or coarsely grind in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Form a teaspoon of the mixture into a small ball and pan-fry for a minute on each side to test the seasoning. Form the mixture into 6 (3-inch) patties, 1/4-inch thick. In a large saute pan, over medium heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, pan-fry the patties for 5 to 6 minutes on each side. Alternatively, cook sausage patties on a greased grill and cook over medium-high heat for 6 to 8 minutes on each side.
• For the Beans:
• Heat the oil in a saute pan, over medium heat. Fry the garlic slices until golden, about 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove and drain on paper towels. Add the shallots and beans to the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the spinach. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 1 minute. Add the broth. Cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the thyme and continue to simmer for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter. To serve, spoon the bean mixture in the center of each plate. Lay 2 patties against each other over the beans. Garnish with parsley.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
