Venison Stew With Leeks Recipes

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Brown meat on all sides. Remove from pan. Add onions to the same pan; cook and stir until crisp-tender, 5-7 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute longer. Add water, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, bay leaf, oregano, salt, pepper. Return meat to pan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until meat is tender, 1-1/2 to 2 hours., Add potatoes and carrots. Continue to cook until vegetables are tender, 30-45 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaf. In a small bowl, mix flour and cold water until smooth; stir into Dutch oven. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, 1-2 minutes. If desired, stir in browning sauce.

Steps:

• Place a large, heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add the blended oil. Season the beef aggressively with kosher salt and pepper. When the oil is hot, add the beef and sear on all sides, 5 to 6 minutes. Add all the chopped vegetables to the pan with the beef and sauté for 2 minutes. Add the tomato paste and stir for 1 minute. Deglaze the pan with the red wine and red wine vinegar, and let them reduce completely away.
• Add 3 cups of the water, 2 teaspoons salt and a generous grinding of pepper, the bay leaves, rosemary, thyme, sage, and cinnamon. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and partially cover the pan. Simmer gently for about an hour. Check and, if the mixture is dry, add another cup or two of water. Keep simmering for 15 to 40 minutes more, until the meat is tender and the braising liquid has reduced to a saucy consistency. Remove the bay leaves and cinnamon sticks. Transfer to a platter and drizzle with a little extra-virgin olive oil, and scatter with a little orange zest and the parsley.

Steps:

• Season the flour with salt and pepper (and some paprika and cayenne if you like a little spice), toss the venison until covered with flour.
• Heat a tablespoon of olive oil and a tablespoon of butter in a large pot over medium heat. When butter has stopped foaming, saute the onions, leeks, mushrooms, and garlic for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove these from the pot and set aside.
• Add a tablespoon of olive oil to the now-empty pot, brown the stew meat for 2 or 3 minutes, until it absorbs all the oil and begins to cook.
• Return the onions, leeks, mushrooms, and garlic to the pot with the meat. Mix in radishes, turnip, carrots, cabbage, cauliflower, bay leaf, rosemary sprig, oregano, salt and pepper.
• Add the water and bouillon. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer 2 hours.
• 15 minutes before finishing, toss in the cubed potatoes.
• Taste and adjust seasonings for flavor. Enjoy!
