Description

This venison ragout with sweet potato puree is a hearty and warming dish, perfect for the cold season. I especially like to make it in the fall, when the venison is particularly flavorful. The combination of tender, braised venison and the slightly sweet puree is simply delicious. The long braising time ensures that the meat becomes butter-soft and the flavors can fully develop. A feast for special occasions or simply to treat yourself. The dish can be prepared well in advance, so you have less stress on the day of serving.
