Venison Ragout With Parsley Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Venison Ragu.
• In deep fry pan or dutch oven: Brown venison in olive oil. Do not crowd pan; do in batches if necessary. Remove to plate, with any juices. Do not wash pan. Add coating of olive oil to pan on medium heat. Add carrot, onion, leeks, fennel, fennel seed, and garlic. Saute until vegetables are nearly soft. Add wine and reduce slightly.
• Return meat and juices to pan. Add stock, pepper to taste, and rosemary. Reduce heat to simmer. Simmer, covered partially, for 45 minutes. Adjust seasonings. Before serving, add parsley and parmesan.
• Serve with noodles, polenta, or gnocchi.

Steps:

• Mix the venison with the vinegar and two tablespoons of the olive oil. Allow to marinate for two hours.
• Heat two tablespoons of the olive oil in a heavy casserole. Add the onion, saute until it begins to soften, then add the mushrooms and carrot and saute about six minutes longer. Stir in the garlic.
• Add the wine, water, thyme, pepper, lentils and the venison with the marinade. Bring to a simmer, cover and allow to simmer for about one hour, until the lentils and the venison are tender. Stir in the beef stock and continue to cook about 20 minutes longer, until the stock is absorbed. Season to taste with salt and serve.
