Directions

Hot-marinade the venison by combining it with the water or stock, wine, onion, garlic, & salt, & bring all these ingredients to a boil.

Let them simmer, covered, for 1 hour, or until the venison is tender.

Add currants or currant jelly & chanterelles, & bring back to a boil.

Thicken with the arrowroot-and- water mixture. The use of currant jelly instead of fresh currants will make a slightly sweeter sauce.

Adjust for salt, & serve with rice.
