Gin or Brandy Flamed Wild Boar Steaks
GIN OR BRANDY FLAMED WILD BOAR STEAKS
Ingredients – Serves 4
4 Wild Boar Steaks
75ml Gin or Brandy
Slices of Orange
Rowan or Redcurrant Jelly
Juniper Berries
Salt and Freshly Ground Black Pepper to taste
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
Method
Take the steaks and beat until thin. Sprinkle with a few crushed juniper berries and salt and pepper. Fry quickly in hot oil and lay in a dish. Brush thinly with chosen jelly and garnish with paper thin slices of orange. Add a little water to the frying pan and mix in the pan juices. Gently warm the gin or brandy in a large ladle or small pan and ignite, pouring over pan juices and stirring gently. Tip the whole lot whilst still flaming, over the steaks. Try not to let the alcohol evaporate before it has had a chance to burn.
Serve with garlic mash and green vegetables
