Marinated Leg of Person
1 leg, about 3 kilos 6 cups dry cider 1 kilo carrots, sliced thinly 8 medium onions, sliced thinly 16 juniper berries 8 leaves sage, chopped 1/2 cup butter 2 whole nutmegs, grated salt and pepper to taste
Combine half each of the cider, nutmeg and sage with 2 of the onions, the juniper berries and salt and pepper to taste. Cut the leg into slices about 1 cm. thick and over these pour the marinade. Refrigerate, covered, for 36 - 48 hours, turning the meat occasionally.
Remove the meat from the marinade and dry with toweling. Strain the marinade and to this add the remaining cider.
In a large flameproof casserole melt the butter and, over a high flame, brown the meat slices on both sides. Remove the slices, lower the flame and add the remaining onions and the carrots, cooking until the onions are softened. Pour in the marinade and bring to a boil. Add the remaining seasonings, replace the venison, cover and place in a medium oven for 1 1/2 hours. Serve hot directly from the casserole. Serves 6 - 8.

Correct the seasoning, simmer for 5 minutes longer and serve hot. Serves 6.

Ok! First you start off with a medium sized ripe shepherd, you will be able to see how ripe a shepherd is by the size of his crook,the longer the crook the more ripe the shepherd. You will most likely want to get a shepherd with approximately 2 metre high crook because those shepherd's tend to be in season this time of year. Now cube the shepherd into small cubes. While you are doing this preheat the oven to 425 degrees farenheit and lightly grease the pan you will be using. You will add your cubed shepherd into this pan. Get some fresh corn and lure a sheep towards you. If you have any excess corn throw it away. Now shear this sheep and add the wool on top of the shepherd cubes(this will keep your shepherd fresh and juicy). Throw into the oven for about 40 minutes and clean up while you wait. And there you have it, shepherd's pie! makes up to 8 servings. Allow a lot of preparation time (the larger the shepherd the longer it takes to cube it.)
