Comment préparer Elk Stew Bourguignon
In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, brown 1.5 lbs of elk (or beef/venison) stew meat in batches over medium-high heat. Remove meat and set aside.
Add 1 tbsp olive oil to the pot and sauté 1 large diced onion, 2 diced carrots, and 2 diced celery stalks until softened (about 5-7 minutes).
Add 2 cloves minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute more.
Stir in 1 tbsp tomato paste and cook for 1 minute.
Sprinkle 1 tbsp flour over the vegetables and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Gradually whisk in 2 cups beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
Return the meat to the pot. Add 1 cup red wine (Burgundy recommended), 1 tsp dried thyme, 1 tsp dried rosemary, 6 juniper berries, and 1 bay leaf.
Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for at least 2 hours, or until the elk is very tender. Stir occasionally.
After 2 hours, remove and discard the juniper berries and bay leaf. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
In the last 15 minutes of cooking time, stir in 4 oz of pre-cooked bacon (diced).
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley (optional).
