The man went hunting & gathering again and returned victorious with an entire free-range, grass-fed venison from a friend’s farm. Normally he only grows venison for his own needs, but this time he happened to have an extra animal. The freezer shuffle was a bit of a hassle, but boy was it worth it!

Our visiting chef Christian*** did a fantastic job threatening the cutlets with a skillet, resulting in a perfect results of all nice pink and raw under the beautiful seared surface. A stack of crispy kumera (purple sweet potato) on the side, and the whole lot finished off with a delicious side dish of spinach and mushrooms with garlic and almond slivers.

Amazing.

(*** Alert single paleo ladies: Christian is a strapping caveman on the market! I can vouch for the fact that this one is fully paleo dedicated, and sure knows his way around the kitchen… AND he catches his own fish too!)
