Venison & Juniper Stew

So yesterday I spent my day grazing on ALOT of Venison Biltong and despite having a proper tasty salad for dinner, I still didn’t feel full.

The weather right now is terrible and typical for Scotland at this time of year. The wind is blowing a gale, the rain is crashing down and won’t stop. It’s also very cold. I should be used to this and to an extent I am but a salad just isn’t going to cut and I need something that will warm me up and cling to my ribs.

Now I don’t own many cook books, everything I source is pretty much online so I was delighted when I found this Venison & Juniper Stew recipe from Jamie Oliver. The recipe can be found via the link below:

Now that you’ve checked out the recipe and bookmarked it to your phone or tablet, you’ll be desperate to know if it is any good…..

It is incredible. It is packed with rich flavours and the venison just melts in your mouth with every bite. Whilst this recipe suggests you slow cook it for 2 hours, I made this the previous night and then popped it in my Tefal slow cooker before I went out to work.

The end result is great and one I will be having again. This recipe makes 6 servings, which is ideal because I can use it for lunches at work.

Great simple recipe and when the weather is cold, this will warm your bones and put a smile on your face.

Enjoy
