Roast venison, game and beef in general, as well as roulades, go well with this wonderful spice.

Ingredients

1 kg venison shoulder
2 tbs clarified butter (or oil)
2 pc onions
1-2 tbs tomato puree
0,7 l dry red wine
300 ml veal stock (or stock with a cube chicken broth & vegetable broth)
8 pc peppercorns
5 pc bay leave
3 pc cloves
5 pc juniper berries
1 bunch vegetable for soup (celery, carrot, leek)
1/4 tsp Salt
1 pc Nuremberg gingerbread
1 pc potato (for tying the sauce)
1 pc Orange
1 tbs Cranberries
1 tbs wild berry jam

Instruction

Prepare Meat

Unpack and dry the roast venison meat.

Brown in a hot pot with some oil or clarified butter.

Fry Meat

I fry the meat with lid and reduce the temperature of the stove plate immediately after inserting the meat.

Brown onion

Add the diced onions to the pot and brown until light brown.

Add tomato puree

Add the tomato paste and roast until light brown.

Add the pressed juniper berries, peppercorns, cloves and bay leaf.

Deglaze

Deglaze with red wine, add the two stock cubes or veal stock from the glass.

Add vegetables

Cut the soup vegetables into very small pieces except for the carrots.

Cut the carrots into oblong sticks.

Add the vegetables to the roast venison and braise with the lid for a good 1-1.5 hours at moderate heat.

Prepare Dumplings

In the meantime, prepare the dumpling mass as described in the article.

Fill into moulds and cook in a steam sieve over boiling water.

Check meat

Remove the meat from the sauce and cut into slices.

Check the cooking degree.

Melt the meat on the tongue until it is as soft as butter.

Sauce complete

Remove the carrots from the sauce and place in a bowl.

Strain the sauce through a fine sieve and bring to the boil.

Add the finely grated potatoes to the sauce and simmer for 3 minutes.

The sauce binds and gets a nice consistency.

Season sauce

Season the final sauce with orange juice, pieces of gingerbread, salt, pepper and butter.

Heat meat

If necessary, add the slices of roast venison to the sauce again and continue cooking.

Serve

Arrange dumpling souffle and carrots on warm plates.

Add the roast venison and the sauce.

Serve the roast venison quickly, enjoy your meal!
