Sautéed Reindeer Sauce - Poronkäristys

Postby Huppe » Sat Jan 09, 2010 12:53 pm

This is a recipe I got from "Sterno". In Finland this is very traditional food and we are proud of it. It was christmas and I got a chance to get some leftovers from Santa Claus. He had some reindeer he didn't need anymore ;)

So I had nice chunks of reindeer. I had it about 4 pounds. We started by having finnish beer from Lapland:
Image

Meat was frozen and I made THIN slices from it with sharp knife:
Image

Slices were very thin:
Image

On the meantime while it was a though job we had finnish Jallu:

I'm working:

When everything was sliced we put some butter on the pan:
Image

And meat on the pan:
Image

Let's serve some beer to the reindeer:
Image

Ok, let it be for a while on a medium heat:
Image
I added some black peppers, bay leaf and sea salt and onion powder.

Meanwhile, we went out to play 'cause it was nice weather (-8F):

My father-in-law was happy and played with us:
Image

Weather was really nice:

Ok, it was time to check out the stew:
Image
Looks delicious!

After 3 hours it was time to make smashed potatoes:
Image

And we served the dish with bread from Lapland:
Image

And with lingonberry jam:
Image

Dinner is served:
Image

Please enjoy:
Image

Almost done:

Beer from Lapland:

Did you know that Santa Claus is from Lapland, Finland?

Looks like a very nice meal,You put alot of work in cutting the meat and I bet it was worth all your labor.

Huppe Thanks for the pic's. Looks very cold there but beautiful as well. I have had Reindeer steaks while in Norway and Sweden, tasty stuff. I sure would like one of those Beers.That dish looks good as well I think I might try it with some venison, the next time I get some. The Hunting Gods where angry with me this year, :lol: .The next time you talk to Sterno tell him to check in we miss him around here.

No it's not. I guess you can get lingonberry jam from Ikea if it is not available in grocery stores?

Ok I know he's been quite busy for one reason and it is not so nice weather to do his favorite hobby now in Germany. I mean smoking ;)
I'm sure he'll come back soon.

Thanks for comments. I'm glad you like this :D
