Wine-Herbed Rabbit Stew with Carrots and Onions

Juicy and soft stewed rabbit meat with a fragrant aroma. The rabbit turns out very tender and fragrant. The wine is not palpable, there is only a slight aroma. You can add different herbs, each time there will be a different aroma, and instead of wine, you can use beer, but I like wine better.

Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Rabbit according to this recipe can be cooked in two ways, either stewed directly on the stove or baked in the oven. It is best to simmer in a cauldron or in a thick-walled pan, since I don’t have a cauldron, I decided to just bake the rabbit in the oven. So letʼs get started. We take our rabbit (I took half the carcass), cut it into pieces, wash the meat thoroughly and dry it, add salt and pepper to taste (I add salt and pepper immediately while frying the meat).

Step 2

Step 2
In a frying pan, heat the butter with vegetable oil (this way the butter will not burn), add one clove of garlic (you don’t need to peel it, just crush it, it will serve us for flavor). You need to keep an eye on the garlic so that it doesn’t start to burn; if it gets too brown, just pull it out of the pan.

Step 3

Step 3
Place our meat in a frying pan and fry until golden brown, first on one side.

Step 4

Step 4
Then turn over and fry on the other.

Step 5

Step 5
After the meat, add our small onions, carrots cut into large cubes, a second clove of garlic and herbs to the frying pan (if there is little oil in the frying pan, you can add a piece of butter).

Step 6

Step 6
Fry everything for a few minutes over medium heat.

Step 7

Step 7
Place the fried meat in a baking dish (if you bake everything in the oven). Place the fried vegetables on top (if you stew everything in a cauldron, then do not put the meat, just add onions and everything else to it, heat everything together and add wine and simmer until done over low heat).

Step 8

Step 8
Fill our rabbit with vegetables with wine (the wine should cover the rabbit halfway, if it is not enough, add a little water). Cover the pan with a lid (or, like me, cover it tightly with foil) and put it in the oven to simmer — bake at 200 C until done (focus on the meat). The dish is ready! Now you know how to bake a rabbit with carrots and onions.
