Venison Goulash
We love a hearty goulash on a cold night. It’s the ultimate comfort food, made even more delicious by using venison and bacon.

instructions

Step 1.
In a large pot or nonstick wok over high heat, add 1 tablespoon of oil. Add half the venison and sear until brown all over, about 3 minutes. Remove venison with a slotted spoon. Add the remaining oil and venison and repeat, then remove with a slotted spoon.

Step 2.
Turn the heat down to medium, add bacon and onions, and saute for 5 minutes. Add garlic, smoked paprika and tomato paste and fry for a further minute, stirring so it doesn’t stick to the bottom.
-
Step 3.
Return the venison to the pot, add remaining ingredients and gently simmer for 90 minutes, until the venison is fork tender. (Alternatively transfer stew to a crockpot.) Discard bay leaves then season with salt and pepper.

Step 4.
Ladle into bowls and top with sour cream (if using) and fresh parsley.
