* Exported from MasterCook * Belgian Hare Recipe By : Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Main Dishes Volume 1, Oct. '98 Wild Game/Fowl Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 4 lbs rabbit -- cut in serving size pieces 3/4 cup all purpose flour 2 t. salt 1 t. pepper 1/2 cup shortening 1 bay leaf 1 small onion sliced thin 1 cup top milk (evaporated works -- too) Dredge rabbit in seasoned flour. Brown in shortening - pour off all but 3 T grease, add bay leaf, onion and milk. Simmer gently until meat is tender. The pot should be COVERED while it simmers. (We serve it with rice- south Louisianians serve lots of things over rice. :) I love broccoli or brussels sprouts with it. Sort of a wintery meal.) We usually used a fryer chicken, which was almost as good. I used to make it in my 5-qt. cast iron dutch oven, but now I use my Joyce Chen wok - I love this pot!! Found it on sale in the Shepherd's Seed Catalog, I think. I guess this could be done in a slow cooker?? Contributed to fareshare by Gayle/ddmmom@linknet.net - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
