Instructions to make Venison and chestnut casserole:

- Using a slotted spoon, set the lardons aside and fry the diced venison, not too much at a time, and set aside with slotted spoon.
- Add the wine and bring to boil, stirring bottom of casserole to release any sediment. Add the port and bring back to boil and keep boiling for one minute.
- Add the garlic, onions, celery, carrots and mushrooms. Stir well.
- Add the bay leaves, thyme and tomato purée. Give it another quick stir.
- Add the stock. You need to just cover the other ingredients so you might need slightly more or less stock.
- Once simmering, cover and put in pre-heated oven.
- After 1 1/4 hours, remove from oven, stir gently and add the chestnuts.
- Return to oven for another hour.
- Check for liquidity and add a little more stock or water to prevent drying out. However, if it’s too liquid-y then simply take the lid off for the last 30 minutes or so.
- Remove from oven, stir gently, check that the venison is nice and tender.
- Taste and add any desired seasoning.
- Serve with desired accompaniments. I always have potatoes and choose from red cabbage, Brussels sprouts, parsnips, even more carrots. Any winter vegetables go well with this dish.
