Venison is low in fat and, like all red meat, provides plenty of iron and minerals. It makes a mouth-watering casserole when cooked with beer and winter vegetables. For the best flavour choose a real ale or one of the popular ‘designer’ beers.

Rabbit soup with herb oatcakes

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

A wholesome meal-in-a-bowl, this soup is similar to Scotch broth, but made with lean diced rabbit rather than lamb. Aromatic tarragon and a mixture of vegetables give the soup a fabulous flavour, and an accompaniment of Scottish-style oatcakes brings a contrasting texture to complete the meal.

Rabbit with fennel and rosemary

Recipe by: Maggie Pannell

Be the first to review it!

Rabbit is an under-used meat, considering it's easily digestible and low in fat and cholesterol. Farmed rabbit is tender and delicate in flavour, but if you buy wild rabbit, the flavour is gamier and the meat will require longer cooking. Serve this delicious meal with a good, rustic-style bread.

Lean venison makes a great terrine. Mixing it with pork and then marinating the meats in port and spices will give it extra flavour and add moisture. Serve the terrine sliced with a mixed salad and wholemeal or Granary bread for a delicious lunch, or use it in sandwiches. It can also be served as a starter for 8.
