Looking for some creative recipe ideas. I've made tacos, stews, stroganoff. I cooked the bones down into a gelatinous broth and still have a few jars left.
Made a bunch, it lasted like a week, but good idea I will make more!
If I was making venison jerky it wouldn’t last the rest of the month
Venison literally means deer meat.
edit: huh I guess I'm wrong it can mean other game meats
Venison stew is my favorite. Even better if you smoke the venison first. Go with a lighter smoke though unless you want "smoke stew." Apple is a good bet but pecan is also good with venison imo and isn't overpowering.
Here is a good one I make all the time Trust me you will love it, and it will leave you feeling great!
-
Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook gently for 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger and red chilli and cook for a few minutes.
-
Grind the cumin, coriander and mustard seeds lightly in a pestle and mortar, then add to the pan, along with the turmeric and garam masala and cook for 1 minute.
-
Add the lentils, tomatoes with their juice, coconut milk and broth/stock, then stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper and cook on a medium/low heat for 15-20 minutes until reduced and thick. If you have time, you can leave it a little longer on a very low heat for even more flavor (just stir often and check it doesn't scorch on the bottom of the pan).Taste and add more chilli if desired.
-
Stir in the lemon juice and spinach until it wilts. Serve warm with rice, naan bread or poppadoms.
Ingredients list:
1 tsp olive oil or coconut oil
2 onions diced
3 garlic cloves finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh ginger peeled and grated
½ finely chopped red chilli (or ½ tsp dried chilli flakes)
½ tsp cumin seeds
½ tsp coriander seeds
½ tsp mustard seeds
2 tsp ground turmeric
1 tsp garam masala
1 cup (200g) dried red lentils, uncooked (rinsed and drained)
1 can (14oz/400ml) chopped tomatoes
1 can (14oz/400ml) coconut milk
2 cups (500ml) vegetable broth/stock
Salt and pepper
Juice of half a lemon
2 handfuls fresh spinach washed
I make a big pot of either lentils or chick peas with this type of recipe about every 2 weeks. I also kill a small deer every 2 years and it is the basis of 90% or more of my meat consumption and I use or my dogs use as much as I can possible use from the animal from it's bones to its hide. :)
Oh fuck it's just a small deer and you're using the bones?
I'm sorry man this whole time I thought it was a big deer and you were wasting the bones.
My bad carry on
