👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Preheat oven to 160°C (320°F). Toss the venison cubes with flour, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
2
Heat olive oil and butter in a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the venison in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Remove browned venison and set aside.
3
Add the chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the diced carrots and swede and cook for another 5 minutes.
4
Return the venison to the pot. Pour in the beef stock and red wine. Add the thyme sprigs and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer, then cover tightly.
5
Transfer the pot to the preheated oven and cook for 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the venison is very tender. Remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaf. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the filling to cool slightly.
6
While the filling cools, prepare the pastry. Roll out two-thirds of the pastry and line a 23cm (9-inch) pie dish. Trim the edges.
7
Spoon the cooled venison and vegetable filling into the pastry-lined dish.
8
Roll out the remaining pastry and place it over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal and trim any excess. Cut a few vents in the top crust.
9
Brush the top of the pie with the beaten egg wash. Bake in the oven at 200°C (400°F) for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
10
Let the pie rest for 10 minutes before serving.
