Tonight was venison with red wine sauce with new potatoes.

Ingredients:

venison steak
butter
garlic
soy sauce
sugar
red wine (I didn't have enough so I used some port too)
salt+pepper
new potatoes

- boil new potatoes
- season venison then fry in a little oil for about 4-5 minutes on each side
- set aside to rest
- melt a small amount of butter in a pan
- add 1 clove finely chopped garlic, cook until golden brown
- add about 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp sugar, about half glass of red wine and salt and pepper to taste
- allow to simmer for about 5 minutes before serving

It was really good, the venison was incredibly tender and so delicious! I'm going to make a potato salad later once everyone else is out the way lol.

First post!

Tonight, being that I have little money, I just cooked a steak and made some garlic bread.

I used a rump steak, and seasoned it with salt and pepper before cooking it in sunflower oil and a little of the garlic butter I used for the garlic bread.

For the garlic bread: (makes about 4 big slices of bread)

approx. 50g butter (softened)
1 clove garlic
some parsley
salt+pepper to season
bread (I slices of a big white bloomer... 1kg of bread for £1 yay!)

- crush/finely chop the garlic
- chop parsley
- add both to butter with salt+pepper and mash with a fork until it's mixed in
- spread on a piece of clingfilm and wrap kind of in a sausage shape
- refridgerate for a few hours
- spread liberally on the bread
- place in the oven for 15-20 minutes

It turned out ok... I didn't cook the steak for long enough and thus didn't cook the garlic bread for quite as long as I probably should have. Making the garlic butter did look impressive though lol.
