Venison ravioli with foie gras

Venison ravioli with foie gras

With a restaurant located on a "mushroom square", Lucas Dégot of L'Acte 2 couldn't offer any other dish than his venison ravioli with foie gras, sublimated with raw and cooked mushrooms.

for 4 persons

 

Preparation time: 45 min

Cooking time: 6 h 20

Resting time: 12 h

 

  • 600 g venison sauté
  • 80 g diced foie gras
  • 50 g flour
  • 20 g butter
  • Oil

Marinade

  • 75 cl red wine
  • 15 cl red port
  • 1 cl cognac
  • 1/2 carrot, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 leek, thinly sliced
  • 1/3 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp juniper berries
  • 1 sprig thyme
  • 1 bay leaf

Ravioli dough

  • 250 g flour
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1 pinch salt

Accompaniments

  • 250 g mushrooms
  • 20 g butter
  • salt and pepper

 

1 - The day before: prepare the marinade by mixing all the ingredients. Add 25 cl of water. Marinate the venison overnight.

2 - Make the ravioli dough: mix the flour, egg yolks, 5 cl water and salt in a food processor. Strain and chill.

3 - D-Day: drain the venison pieces and brown in a casserole dish with the butter and oil. Sprinkle with the flour, mix well and moisten with the marinade. Season to taste. Bring to the boil and cook, covered, at 110°C (th. 3-4) for approximately 6 h.

4 - Drain and flake the meat. Strain the sauce and leave to cool. Mix the meat with the foie gras cubes and a little sauce.

5 - Roll out the ravioli dough and cut into 12 discs of 8 cm and 12 discs of 10 cm diameter. Place a generous spoonful of filling in the center of the smaller disks and cover with the larger ones.

6 - Weld the two doughs together, moistening the edges and pinching them together. Cook the ravioli in a large volume of simmering salted water for about 6 min.

7 - Fry the mushrooms in the butter over a high heat, season and serve with the ravioli.

8 - Serve the ravioli topped with the sauce, and arrange the pan-fried mushrooms around it.
