Cooking rabbits

Dusty87

Ok, i decided id make dinner tonight, so i says to the young ones(herself minds, 4 and 11) what they want for dinner. Pigeon they said( i gave them pigeon 6 mnths ago). No can do i said, how about rabbit??
Yea they said ' and duck:rolleyes:'. ( they tasted duck last year too).
I said rabbit next week.
So i want to know, a simple way of cooking rabbit that will be tasty to keep two young ones interested in game???

If it goes down well im planning on putting some in blender with veg for the baby. Is rabbit meat ok for this or should i stick to blending chickin?

dwighet

do em up a chicken stew but replace the chook with rabbit....
yummy
Or if you have a load of bunnies...bone out the back fillets and cut them into nugget size pieces..
Dip em in egg then coat em in breadcrumbs then straight into the deep fat fryer.....
Bunny nuggets...the kids will love em..

I'd leave it marinade in some cider vinegar over night.
This is one I prepared earlier

Make sure you get good 3/4 size rabbits or smaller for your introduction;)

An auld tough rabbit is not a nice eating experience:(

As I said marinade overnight in the fridge for best results on a 3/4 size Rabbit

Or use Ragee Ragee sauce

Just done up a few burgers the other night and everyone that tried them liked them. Handy way of doing them if you have access to a mincer. Small bit of work involved.

This is where I got the recipe:

Could also go one further and do up the burgers like dwighet said to do nuggets.

I know this is a bit late but in future why not try rabbit soup!

Joint the rabbit! (nice young one when possible)
Put in a large sauspan with water, chunks of carrots, onions and some salt!
Boil for an hour or two until the meat is nice and tender!

Now you can leave the joints as they are or you can take the meat off the bone with a fork when cooked and put back in the pot!

Finally, add a packet of chicken soup and leave to thicken!

Thats it! simples!!!

Great stuff in the winter, especially after an evening flight, or a night out with the lamp!
