Cookin' Ya Conies

[Rez 4,961]

Right. How do you do yours?!

 

I find the oven makes them tough, slow cooker is best so far for me.

 

Not to worried about the ingredients etc, just cooking and so on?

try one in the oven with a breast of lame over it, comes out great. or do in slow cooker with garlic and chicken oxo.

I remember coming home with my dad from dawn shooting trips in the school holidays. He'd paunch the rabbits for mum to make a stew later for dinner but, he made what he called a Hunter's Breakfast, where he used to skin some of the thighs and roll them in flour like chicken drumsticks and fry them in bacon fat. Serve up with fried eggs, bacon, black pud, tomatoes and field mushrooms, with thick toast from mum's home-baked bread. Cuppa tea!

Beautiful breakfast that!

My favourite is curried rabbit (West Indian style) mmm lovely, or if I'm cooking its basic roast rabbit on a bed of onions and garlic covered in streaky bacon .

[Rez 4,961]

Seems most add something to them when oven cooking as they go pretty dry sometimes... Bacon etc.

 

Simon. That breakie sounds the bomb, especially this am.

Try this lads,- Up - Market Rabbit Stew.

One Rabbit ( head shot with a HW 100 kt .177) using AA fields 8.4 grain mind you

 

Dredge rabbit pieces in seasoned flour and fry until lightly browned. Then remove and set aside.

Fry "gently" one or two rashers of chopped streaky bacon, and one large chopped onion until the onion is translucent but not coloured, then add two chopped carrots and two/ three sticks of chopped celery.

Add rabbit pieces, cook for a few minutes, then add a good glug of sherry (medium),chicken stock (from cubes) to your desired amount gravy, small sprig thyme, black pepper, salt to taste.

 

From here i like to put it in a slow cooker - until very, very tender (over night).

10 minutes before serving put a small tin of haricot beans into the stew and sprinkle croutons generously over.

 

 

Recipe from "Delicious Vermin"

By Rosie Barham.

 

"enjoy"

 

P.S

Avoid any rabbits supplied by "Big Mac"and Rez, as they would have been old, deaf and very slow to react and undoubtably prove to be tough and none cookable.

Yeah Mac is right ! "No HONESTLY" - .22 is best for shooting rabbits or "owt else" that has already been shot with the deadly .177 HW 100 kt

 

 

atb

 

P.S Rez, - mmmmm ! calibre - "cork" or .177 - devastating out to 12 inches on bog roll, - un- used of coarse !

 

£800 should get you a good quality GAT with a walnut handle, - any gunsmith in Liverpool supplies these weapons at that price to anyone unsure mate, - promise you !

 

atb lads ! "ha! ha! ha!"

Bunny and Black Pudding Casserole for me, lovely and tender!

 

quantities can be halved if you want a stew for 2!

Ingredients:
2 Bunnies (dressed and de-boned and diced - if you can leave them soaking overnight in
brine/White wine vinegar even better!)
1lb of Black pudding
2 medium onions
2 carrots
1 apple
a Little olive oil
salt and pepper
1 level teaspoon mixed dried herbs
2 chicken stock cubes and 1 vegetable stock cube
1 pint of boiling water (in a jug)

Shortcrust Scones
Plain flour - 6 ozs
margarine 2ozs
a little cold water to bind
pinch of salt and pepper, pinch of dried sage

Take your bunnies and brown them off in a HOT frying pan with some Olive oil.
Once browned place in a large casserole dish.
Chop your black pudding up into large chunks and brown off quickly. add to casserole dish
Chop onion, carrots and apple (leave skin on if desired)
add to the casserole dish.
Take 1 pint of boiling water in a jug and add the stock cubes and herbs. Leave the stock to stand until cooled slightly.
Add salt and pepper to the casserole mix and stir well, add the stock and place in a preheated oven at 180 degrees celsius.
cook for 1 hour and then turn the oven down to 150 degrees for a further 2 hours. ;D

To make the scones mix the flour and margarine together until it resembles breadcrumbs, add salt, pepper and sage. Add a little water until the mixture just begins to bind.
knead mix together and leave to stand for 20 minutes in the fridge.
Quickly roll out dough to 1 inch thick and cut out scones using a knife or scone cutter, place on a lightly greased tray and brush lightly with a little milk.
Prick with a fork ( so they look pretty!)
Add the scones to the oven 30 minutes before the casserole is cooked - check after 15 minutes (to see if cooked stick a sharp knife in if it comes out clean there done!)
They should take about 15-25 minute to cook depending on how thick they are.
Once cooked remove from oven allow to cool very slightly and then serve with mashed potatoes!

 

If you can avoid using the stock cubes and simply boil the rabbit bones to make the stock then do so, much better taste!
