Difficulty: Medium
Serves: 4
Preparation: 5 mins
Cooking: 15 mins
Ingredients
- 4 venison steaks
For the marinade:
- 150ml (¼ pint) red wine
- 2 tbsps French wholegrain mustard
- 1 tbsp soft brown sugar
- 2 tbsps tomato purée
- 1 tsp chilli powder (or to taste)
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- Salt & freshly ground black pepper
Method
If the steaks are thickly cut, put each steak between two sheets of cling film and flatten with a rolling pin to about ½" thick.
Place all the marinade ingredients in a blender and blitz until smooth.
Put the steaks in a dish and pour over the marinade. Cover with cling film, put in the fridge and leave to marinate for about 2 hours, turning occasionally.
Drain the meat from the marinade, season on each side and place on a hot barbecue. Cook on each side turning regularly to ensure even cooking.
Baste occasionally with the remaining marinade to keep moist.
