Game Casserole la marmite Stavsnäs
Wild game meat (we used Elk Calf) cut into stew beef sizes
Smoked Bacon or similar
Some spicy sausages
Carrots
Root celery
Parsnips
Onion
Garlic
Bay leaves
Mushrooms
Red wine
Tomato puree
Salt and Pepper
Sear casserole pieces in the Cauldron until browned.
Add some spicy sausage, smoked bacon in pieces. Chopped onion, garlic, celery and carrot. Pour in wine so that it just covers the meat. Bring to boil and skim off since that will create a finer sauce when ready.
Let simmer for about 1 hour. Add the mushrooms, tomato paste and spices and simmer over low heat for at least 1 more hour, or until the meat pieces are tender. Continuously add more red wine, so that the meat is covered all the time.
When the meat is tender, taste the stew with salt, pepper and a little more seasoning. Serve with a bit of crème fraiche or sour cream.
Pressed Potatos
Slow cook in a cauldron over open fire and simmer the young / fresh Potatos in water for 12-15 minutes. Take out water and before serving add some butter and mix with Sweet Paprika Flakes and let it fry in the cauldron under mix for 5 minutes over open fire.
Serve with Creme fraiche / Sourcreame mixed with some Sweet Paprika Flakes and Garlic Puree as side dish.
