Cooking with venison 野味家肴(2)ELK香肠饭,锅爆鹿肉,Antelope steak 等

I have promised my freind to write some venison recipes when I have time. Never had enough time. This is the 3rd time I try. Hopefully, I'll have it done this time. (I did it finally. It took me three weeks... because too busy for something else)
答应过朋友多写一些野味的餐，一直没有时间，这是第三次开张了，希望这次能完成任务．(这次终于算完成任务吧,拖了3,4个星期,不是写这个, 是时间有限,忙其它的...)
1. Elk chorizo paella　西班牙式ＥＬＫ香肠饭
It is not too hard to find chorizo nowadays. But it is hard to find ELK chorizo unless you go hunting or you have hunter friends... They are so delicious. I made this dish was on one of the weekdays after work. It is simple to do and won't take much effort at all. As usual, I walk thru our vegetable garden and search something I use for the "side dish". Nothing is better than a gourmet salad with the paella.
市场上不难找 CHORIZO ,但是ELK做的CHORIZO就很难买到了,除非你有打猎的朋友送给你,味道非同小可... 这套餐是某个星期下班后做的晚餐. 很简单易做.
和往常一样,做饭前在菜园里走一圈,找找做配餐的原料,各种各样的嫩青菜做色拉配ELK香肠饭再好不过了.
Here is what I found in our garden: gourment salad 这是我在菜园摘的. 足够了


1 Tbsp olive oil (1大勺橄榄油）
1 - 1.5 lb Elk Chorizo （1－1.5磅ELK 香肠）
1/4 cup chopped onion （1/4杯洋葱丁）
1/2 cup chopped scallop zucchinis （1/2杯花角瓜丁）
1 medium tomato chopped （1只中等大小的西红柿，切块）
1/4 cup green peas （1/4杯豌豆）
1 and 1/2 cup Arborio Rice （1－1杯半意大利米）
2 cup water （2杯水）
1 tsp salt （1小勺盐）
1/2 tsp fresh grounded pepper （半小勺黑胡椒粉）
还摘了两只花角瓜, 西红柿和豌豆 . ELK香肠切小块,锅烧中热,加橄榄油ELK香肠两面煎好. 加入洋葱丁,角瓜丁,黑胡椒粉, 炒5分钟,加入西红柿块,见下图.


Put Arborio rice in the pan and mix well. Add warm water, cover and simmer for few minutes. Check it often to make sure not to burn it. Add more warm water after all liquid has been absorbed by rice. Cover and continue to simmer. Repeat the process until the rice is fully cooked. Add green peas in the pan and mix well. Season it with salt and serve hot.
再放入意大利米,拌匀,加水盖过米,盖上盖子,关小火,几分钟后开盖查看, 搅拌不要烧焦了. 水干后,再加水盖过米, 盖上盖子,直到米熟, 放入豌豆，搅拌均匀，加盐调味即可.

2. Antelope Steak with sauté vegetables 烤羚羊肉排配炒素菜
Here is a package of Antelope back strip steak from the Antelop hunt. Picked some vegetables from our garden and let's cook a nice and simple weekday dinner.
打猎归来, 当然要有野味吃. 下面是一包羚羊外脊肉排和菜圆摘来的,简单的 weekday 晚餐.



The back strip steak was cut into pieces already by the butcher. All I need to do is seasoning with some sea salt and fresh grounded pepper for 10 minutes. Heat a cast iron pan to medium high heat. Grill it to the desired stage. They are delicious. See below pictures.
Butcher已经把长条外脊肉切成块状, 我需要做的就是加些海盐和黑胡椒粉淹10分钟. 铸铁锅加热,煎肉排, 煎到肉中间有一点红,大约6-8 分钟. 看下图.


Remove the steak. Keep them warm and let them rest for 10 minutes. Put sliced peppers, zucchinis and tomatoes in the cast iron pan; sauté and season with salt and peppers. Serve the dish with sweet corn. Full dinner took me less than 30 minutes from start to finish. It is simple and delicious.



煎好的羚羊肉排取出, 保温, 休息10分钟, 把切好片的素菜放入煎过羚羊肉排的铸铁锅中翻炒,加入盐调味, 出锅即可.配上甜玉米, 一餐从开始到结束, 30分钟就完成了. 即快, 简单, 有营养, 又美味.


3.Sweet and Sour Deer Meat with saute Chinese Eggplants and Peppers 
锅爆鹿肉和清炒茄子辣椒

Sweet and Sour Pork is famous in Northeast China. It is quiet different from what we have in America. You would refuse to eat the Americanized Sweet and Sour Pork if you have had real ones......Anyway, I used deer meat instead of pork this time. It was perfect. We really like it.
