Description

This pizza pocket with tender venison saddle is a real highlight! I especially like to make it when I want to prepare something special for a birthday. The slightly nutty taste of the venison saddle harmonizes wonderfully with the spicy pesto, the fresh arugula and the creamy cheese. Preparing the dough in the Thermomix® is super easy and always works. A little tip: Be sure to flavor the venison saddle with fresh herbs after frying - this gives the dish an extra fine touch. Perfect for those who like it hearty and festive!

Ingredients (14 ingredients)

  • 1 piece Saddle of venison
  • 1 piece Bunch of fresh arugula
  • 2 piece Burrata or other regional cheese
  • 1 cup Marinated, dried tomatoes
  • 200 Gramm Pesto
  • 1 Schuss Sunflower oil
  • 1 Löffelspitze Salt and pepper

  • 630 Milliliter Ice-cold water

Preparation (6 steps)

1

Prepare dough

Thermomix® Setting

180
2

Let the dough rise

Place the dough in a bowl, sprinkle with 1 tbsp durum wheat semolina and drizzle with a dash of olive oil. Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for approx. 45 minutes until the volume has doubled.

3

Prepare the venison saddle

Season the venison saddle on both sides with salt and pepper and let it rest for about 10 minutes.

4

Sear and cook the venison saddle

Sear the venison saddle on the grill over direct heat or in the pan. Once the meat is just roasted, cook indirectly over low heat for another 10 to 12 minutes until the desired core temperature is reached. Place thyme and rosemary sprigs around the meat and baste with butter. A meat thermometer helps to determine the perfect degree of cooking -- the meat is tender pink inside at 56 degrees Celsius. Let the meat rest briefly before slicing it thinly.

5

Top the pizza pocket

Roll out the dough and form a pizza pocket. Spread the pizza pocket with 200 g pesto, spread 1 bunch of fresh arugula and 1 cup of marinated, dried tomatoes on top. Finally, add slices of venison saddle and 2 pieces of cheese. Season with some pepper if desired.

6

Bake pizza pocket

Bake the pizza pocket in a preheated oven at 220°C top/bottom heat for approx. 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
