Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 kg wild boar shoulder cut into bite size pieces
  • 1 kg carrots
  • 2 leeks
  • 4 onions
  • 4 cloves of garlic
  • 50 gram butter or olive oil
  • 1 tbsp flour
  • 3 sprigs of thyme
  • 400 ml of your favorite red wine
  • 200 ml beef stock or water
  • 3 tbsp tomato paste

Equipment

  • Frying pan

Method
 

  1. Cut the meat into bite size pieces.
  2. Scrape and wash the carrots an cut them into sticks.
  3. Chop the leek in the desired thickness. In my house they want it extra finely chopped, but that is not necessary.
  4. Peel and chop the onions and garlic
  5. Melt the butter (or simply use olive oil) in the frying pan and fry the pieces of meat.
  6. Once the meat got some color, put in the flour and keep on stirring for a couple of minutes.
  7. Add the onions, garlic, leek and thyme and quickly stir. Then add the tomato paste and stir untill the vegetables are covered with the tomato paste.
  8. Add the red wine and stock (or water) and bring to a boil. Then let the stew simmer for an hour on low heat with the lid on.
  9. After one hour add the carrots and let the stew simmer for another hour on low heat.
  10. The stew is done when the meat is tender.

Notes

My family loves to eat this stew with a delicious cheesy potato puree. But it's also delicious if you prefer to eat it with pasta or rice.
