TAKE the fillets out down the side of the spine, take all the outer thin skin like sinue off it, and all the other thin bits of sinue.

fry this in a hot frying pan in olive oil 2-3 mins either side, stand for 5 mins , serve :yes:

depends alot on how old the deer was when it was killed and how it was killed. like said before in the oven i slow roast covered in water, or fry the steaks but personally i just make stews or currys with the meat as its not the nicest meat on its own and these two methods flavor it well and make it nice and tender at same time!!!! hope that helps and good luck with whatever you do... yis robbie

place the venison in a bowel of milk, half way up the roast or joint, soak the evening before cooking and turn occassionaly,

this will help.... Also a high heat for the first 20 to 30 minutes then turn the oven down to slow cook....



let us know how it goes....

Damn you... I'm at work and that pic has made me drool all over me keyboard.

Will try and find you a receipe my OH did for a Water Deer we got given off a pheasant shoot last year (one of the dogs got hold of it and mangled it's leg). She roasted the loin for no more than about 15mins in the oven and that was smegging delicious.
