Don't mind in the slightest; enjoy reading all the posts. But, if I'm not being to presumptious as a junior catpager, why not spit this into Low Carbs post and a new Dinner Tonight post..just an idea...

Season with a bit of pepper

These were lovely!!!!

Thanks!! Sounds yummy; may try

DM that sounds nice

I love Chinese food!!

Well I got some venison steaks for tomorrow dinner, not too sure how I am going to cook them, they seemed very reasonable each one was under £3

Have you ever tried venison stew? Haven't had it since I was in my teens; my uncle was a hunter & my aunt cooked a really mean venison stew

It's a little gamy & tough, but with long simmering, as I recall, became really tender, with lots of carrots, potatoes & onions

dandysmon, I think I will pan fry these, next time I will get some cubed venison and make a stew

Emma - this is a fab recipe. Not a 20 minute supper though - takes a lot of time to prepare (not a lot of work, it just has to sit in the marinade for ages) and needs to spow cook. http://www.catpages.co.uk/talkcats/s...88&postcount=6

Let me know how the pan-frying goes. I've never been brave enough - venison is so lean I'd be afraid I would overcook it and turn it to cardboard.

DM Thanks for that!!! I will cook the venison steaks carefully hopefully they will turn out ok

DM Well I pan fried these and they came out fantastic!!! I did them for about 7 mins each side, OH only likes his meat well done

Then I popped in two teaspoons of Baxters Red Onion cutney and scrapped all the bits from the bottom of the pan so it made a nice sauce/gravy.

I will definately buy these again, however I bought two packs with two steaks in each and I cooked all four of these, as the meat is so dense me and the OH decided that one steak was enough

Next time I go back to the farm shop I bought these from I will pick up another pack and also some venison casserole
