Ingredients
  • 1 rabbit
  • 2 shallots
  • Garlic
  • 100 g parsley
  • ½ litre white wine
  • Salt and pepper
  • 15 very thin slices of smoked streaky bacon (for a terrine that will make 20 slices)

Caramelized onion jam:

  • 500 g onions
  • 30 cl white wine
  • 20 cl white vinegar
  • 1 spoonful tomato purée
  • 150 g sugar
  • 2 laurel leaves
  • Salt and pepper to your taste
  • 50 g raisins
Direction

Put all the ingredients in a crock pot and let cook for 4 to 5 hours over a low flame (thermostat 4/5).

Debone the rabbit, or have your poulterer do it. Set it to marinate the day before, in garlic, shallot, parsley, salt, pepper and white wine. Line the mould with very thin slices of smoked streaky bacon, and neatly arrange the pieces of marinated rabbit in the terrine. Now cook in a water bath for 1:30 hours at thermostat 4, after covering the mould with kitchen foil. Remove from the oven and press it overnight.

Serve chilled with the caramelized onion jam and a bouquet of wild lettuce.
