Ingredients

  • 4 large potatoes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Optional: Fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
  • Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt.
  • Cut each potato into wedges. You can do this by first cutting the potato in half lengthwise, then cutting each half into several wedges.
  • In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the seasoned oil mixture.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with some additional olive oil.
  • Arrange the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. This allows them to bake evenly and become crispy.
  • Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 35 minutes or until the potato wedges are golden brown and crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside. You can flip them halfway through the baking time for even cooking.
  • Once the potato wedges are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a minute or two.
  • If desired, sprinkle some fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme over the wedges for added flavor.
  • Serve the baked potato wedges hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mayonnaise, or a garlic aioli.

Print Pin Rate
Course: Supper
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Servings: 4 people
Calories: 375kcal

Ingredients

  • 600 g venison steaks (about 150-200g each)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp fresh rosemary chopped
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 cup red wine (optional)
  • 1/4 cup beef or vegetable broth
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Take the venison steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This will help them cook more evenly.
  • In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and chopped thyme. Rub this mixture all over the venison steaks.
  • Season the steaks with salt and black pepper to taste. Let them marinate for at least 15-20 minutes.
  • Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the pan.
  • Once the butter has melted and the pan is hot, add the marinated venison steaks.
  • Sear the steaks for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer your steaks more well-done. Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the steaks and your desired level of doneness.
  • Transfer the cooked steaks to a plate and cover them with aluminum foil to keep them warm.
  • In the same skillet, add the red wine (if using) and deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
  • Add the beef or vegetable broth, balsamic vinegar, and honey to the skillet. Stir well and let it simmer for a few minutes until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly.
  • If needed, adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper to taste.
  • Pour the pan sauce over the cooked venison steaks.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
  • Serve the venison steaks with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.

Venison stew

Print Pin Rate
Course: Supper
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 2 hours 30 minutes
Total Time: 2 hours 40 minutes
Servings: 4 people
Calories: 471kcal

Ingredients

  • 500 g venison meat cubed
  • 30 g all-purpose flour
  • 30 ml vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 carrots peeled and sliced
  • 2 potatoes peeled and sliced
  • 200 g mushrooms sliced
  • 500 ml beef or vegetable broth
  • 250 ml red wine (optional)
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 5 fresh thyme (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 30 g butter

Instructions

  • In a bowl, season the venison meat with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the 30 grams of flour over the meat and toss to coat evenly.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the venison meat and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the meat from the pot and set it aside.
  • In the same pot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for a few minutes until they become fragrant and translucent.
  • Add the carrots, potatoes, and mushrooms to the pot. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Return the browned venison meat to the pot and pour in the beef or vegetable broth and red wine (if using). Add the bay leaf and thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours or until the venison is tender. Stir occasionally and add more broth if needed to keep the stew from becoming too thick.
  • In a separate small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the 30 grams of flour to create a roux. Cook, stirring constantly, for a few minutes until the roux turns a light golden brown.
  • Gradually add a ladle of hot liquid from the stew into the roux, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Once the mixture is smooth, pour it back into the stew and stir well to thicken it. Simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes.
  • Remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs. Taste the stew and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary.
  • Serve the venison stew hot in bowls, garnished with fresh thyme leaves or parsley if desired.
