Ingredients
- 1-full rabbit
- 300 g champignon mushrooms
- 5- cherry tomatoes
- 10-15 black olives
- 2- garlic cloves
- Olive Oil, salt, black pepper, laurel leaves, thyme, rosemary, and fresh parsley.
- 1 glass of white wine
For the mashed potatoes
- 3 medium potatoes
- 50 g butter
- 1 glass of milk
Directions
- First, we cut the rabbit into pieces, rinse and dry it well. We also prepare all the other ingredients, chop the garlic finely, remove the olive kernel from each of the olives, rinse cherry tomatoes and cut them in half, we clean the mushrooms and cut them into thin slices.
- In a saucepan, we add olive oil, finely chopped garlic, rosemary, laurel, and let the oil heat and season with herbs.
- We add the cut rabbit and stir fry carefully by each side. We cook it for about 15 minutes on low heat. Add salt and fresh ground black pepper.
- Passing the time, we add the wine and let the alcohol evaporate at a high temperature.
- Add cut cherry tomatoes, olives, and cut mushrooms.
- Add water to cover all and cook the rabbit and mushrooms for 30 minutes on medium heat. It will need some more time to cook it properly when we prepare this recipe with a wild rabbit. Check it time after time with a fork and add other hot water if it will need it. A few minutes before removing from heat, add thyme and fresh chopped parsley. You will see that meat will be soft when you put the fork into it. You can serve it with its own sauce or accompanied by any seasonal salad.
We recommend as a side dish today a simple mashed potatoes recipe. - To prepare it, we first rinse well potatoes, peel them and dice the potatoes larger. In a deep pot, add water and salt, and once the water boiled, add diced potatoes to cook for 10 minutes until they get soft to mash. Dry them and mash with a masher or blend in a mixer. Add the mashed potatoes to a pot, add milk and butter. Mix them all for about 2-3 minutes until it creates a creamy and not thin mixture. Season it with salt, pepper, and nutmeg if you like. Mashed potatoes prefer and recommend to eat by all family and combine very well with the rabbit in this recipe. Serve it warm.
