Rabbit, mustard/tarragon sauce Recipe

Spread 2 rabbit legs with 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard. Place in a bowl, cover with cling film and put in the fridge for at least 4 hours.

Preheat the oven to 160 C. Brown the rabbit pieces all over in olive oil and a tbsp butter and transfer them back to the bowl. Deglaze the dish with 200 ml white wine and pour this over the rabbit in the bowl.

Heat 25 gr duck fat (or clarified butter) in a casserole dish and fry 1 large, chopped onion, 2 finely chopped cloves of garlic and 100 gr lardons. When they have browned and softened a little, add 1 heaped tbsp of  flour and cook for a minute or so. Gradually add 500 ml chicken stock, stirring well after each addition to make sure there are no lumps.

Put the rabbit back in the casserole dish, cover and bring to a simmer. Transfer to the oven and cook for 1¼ hours, or until the rabbit is tender. Check the rabbit is cooked through – the meat should be starting to fall off the bone. Poke the legs with a knife and if it doesn’t slide in easily, return the casserole to the oven for 15–20 minutes and then check again for tenderness.

Remove the rabbit from the casserole dish and keep it warm. Place the dish on the hob and stir in the stripped and chopped leaves of 8 sprigs of fresh tarragon sprigs, 60 gr crème fraîche and a tbsp whole grain mustard. Put the rabbit back in the dish and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with Brussels sprouts, red cabbage, oven roasted onion and potato croquettes

Crispy braised Iberico pork collar Recipe

Image
It is not cheap, but if you come across it don't hesitate and buy an   Iberico  pork  collar  (aka boneless neck, Cabecero). Mine was 1800 g. It is a well marbled, exquisitely flavorful cut that can be roasted, braised, or sliced into steaks for quick searing. ... While  iberico  is best known for the famous slow-aged hams, the other cuts are succulent, moist & delicious. I made pulled pork from one half. Today I made this from the other half. First I peeled, halved and then sliced 800 g of onions and sweated them in 40 g of butter, turned the heat up a bit and softly fried them for about 40 mins, nicely caramelised and brown. Took out the onions and added some more butter in the pan to sear the meat. Then turned the heat down again and added  sea salt, black pepper, 3 tbsp  Worcestershire  and 6 finely hacked cloves of garlic , 1.2 liter of beef stock , the reserved onions and 2 leaves of laurel . Put the lid on and let it simmer for 3 hours. Then I took out the oni
