Raclette & Wine

• 12 Stück Rehmedaillions (a 80g)
• 30 Gramm gebratene Speckstreifen
• 200 ml Bechamelsauce
• 3 EL Sonnenblumenöl
• 8 kleine Petersilienwurzeln mit Grün (alternativ Knollensellerie)
• 6 - 8 breite Schnippelbohnen
• 1 große Birne
• 4 - 6 schwarze Walnüsse
• 100 ml Wildfond
• 2 EL Butter
• 2 Stängel glatte Petersilie
• nach Geschmack Salz

Preheat the oven to 180 °C top and bottom heat. Clean, peel and trim the parsley roots. Clean the beans and cut into diagonal pieces. Blanch the parsley roots and beans separately in boiling salted water and rinse immediately in iced water.

Cut the walnuts into eighths and warm in the game stock. Wash the unpeeled pear, cut into eighths, remove the core and cut into thin slices. Fry the venison medallions on both sides in oil, then finish cooking in the oven for approx. 3 - 5 minutes.

In the meantime, toss the beans and parsley roots in melted butter and season with salt. Arrange the vegetables with the black walnuts and pear slices on large plates. Place the medallions on top, garnish with game stock, Béchamel sauce and bacon strips.

Tip: You can make your own black walnuts. To do this, prick the walnuts all over with a fork or skewer and place in water for 10 days. Change the water every day so that the tannic acid can drain off. Boil the nuts 3 times in salted water until they are deep black. Simmer with bay leaves and peppercorns for approx. 20 minutes until soft. Layer in preserving jars and cover with syrup. The nuts can be kept for approx. 1 year.
