2102. ROASTED WILD RABBIT and BACON with LEMON, THYME and PARSLEY STUFFING

serves four


1 lb 4 oz (560 g) wild rabbit joints, or boneless rabbit, same weight
12 rashers dry-cure streaky bacon, derinded and cut in half
1 large onion, peeled and sliced finely into rings
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 level tablespoon fresh chopped thyme, plus a few sprigs
10 fresh sage leaves dipped in olive oil
salt and freshly milled black pepper

For the stuffing:
grated zest ½ small lemon
½ level tablespoon fresh chopped thyme
1 level tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
6 oz (175 g) pork sausage
1 heaped dessert spoon fresh white breadcrumbs
½ onion, finely chopped
2 oz (50 g) Bramley apple, peeled and very finely chopped
salt and freshly milled black pepper

For the sauce:
5 fl oz (150 ml) Sercial (dry) Madeira (or dry cider)

Preheat the oven to gas mark 7, 425°F (220°C).

Spread the onion rings all over the baking tray in a single layer then scatter over the crushed garlic and thyme. Now season the rabbit joints and arrange them on the bed of onions. After that, drape the bacon rashers over the rabbit pieces.

Next, make the stuffing by mixing all the ingredients together and forming the mixture into 12 small balls. Place these among the rabbit joints then tuck in the thyme sprigs here and there. Place the baking tray in the oven on a high shelf and cook for 20 minutes. Then top each piece of rabbit with a sage leaf dipped in olive oil. Roast for another 15-20 minutes or until the bacon and sage are crispy and the rabbit is cooked.

Now remove everything to a warmed serving dish, place the roasting tray over direct heat and add the Sercial Madeira to the juices. Bring to a simmer and bubble for about 5 minutes until reduced by about a third. Check the seasoning then pour the sauce over the rabbit and stuffing. Serve with crisp roast potatoes and a green vegetable.

396. HONEY and MUSTARD ROAST BACON JOINT

serves 3 to 4


1 large Bacon joint (either smoked or unsmoked)

Sauce Ingredients
2 tablespoons runny honey
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
2 teaspoons wholegrain mustard
1 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons lemon juice
½ teaspoon chilli powder
4 cloves, crushed or ½ teaspoon ground cloves

Rinse the Bacon under a cold tap, and dry with kitchen towel, then slice the Bacon joint in half to create two smaller joints. Place them in a shallow roasting tin/dish.

Thoroughly mix together all the sauce ingredients in a bowl and pour over the Bacon making sure the meat is well covered.

If possible, cover with aluminium foil and refridgerate overnight or as long as possible.
Cooking

Heat the oven to 180°C (360°F) or 160°C (320°F) for a fan assisted oven. Place the meat in the oven, covered with aluminium foil.

Cook covered for 30 minutes, remove from the oven and baste the meat in the sauce. Replace and cook covered for another 20 minutes. Baste the meat again and replace in the oven, this time with the foil removed. Cook for a final 10 - 20 minutes until the top is nicely crisp and the meat cooked through.

Remove from the oven and serve either hot or leave to cool.


NOTE: Don't worry if you don't have all the ingredients. Any mustard can be used and the lemon and lime juice can be substituted for each other if lacking one. The small amount of chilli powder is used to help bring out the flavours, and provided it is not really hot, its presence will hardly be noticed.

This sauce can also be used on Bacon steaks. Mix the sauce ingredients together with i tsp of cornflour and place in a pan.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS: This dish can be served immediately from the oven with roast potatoes and freshly cooked vegetables. Alternatively, leave to cool and eat cold with a salad or in a sandwich.
