Preparation

Die Zutaten für die Kräuterkruste werden vermengt und anschließend auf Klarsichtfolie gestrichen und kalt gestellt

Nachdem die Rehmedaillons scharf angebraten und gewürzt wurden, sollen sie auf dem Backblech ruhen

Step 2

Sear the venison medallions on both sides in oil (about 1 minute per side). Season with salt and pepper, then leave to rest on a baking tray. Spread the chilled crust on top and bake in a preheated oven at approx. 180 degrees Celsius (approx. 10 minutes) until golden brown.

Die einzelnen Rosenkohlblätter werden in Öl mit Salz in der Pfanne geschwenkt

Step 3

Separate the Brussels sprouts from the stalk one by one (3 florets per portion) and toss in a pan with a little oil and salt just before serving.
