I fancy doing a venison version of steak and kidney suet pudding. I have a couple of fallow kidneys and a few haunches in the freezer. Any advice or recipes??

I like sit for dinner at 6 ish. Just a shame I work till 5 and can't get round to you in time.

I wouldn't put kidneys in it mate I think it'd be too strong as the pudding would be quite rich on its own. I'd also make sure the haunches were well trimmed of sinew even if it means wasting a bit more than normal,

thanks for that. Yes, I always trim well. Never had venison kidneys, don't normally bother but butcher left me a couple. Are they stronger than lamb??
 
Kidneys are fine in a pie. You could soak them in milk to take any sharpness they may have on them. Ive used roe kidneys a few time and dice them quite small to hide them from the wife. She always says its good and manages to dig em out but the flavours there.

I did this last week! Fallow kidneys and roe venison. dusted with seasoned flour, browned, with onions. British beer, chicken stock (it was all I had but not overpowering) bit of herbs du province and bring to the boil to thicken. and then into a suet case - not too much gravy in the case though - keep that separate and simmer to cook out the booze - and steam for 6 hours (I made a big one) and it was f***ing fantastic! If you can make one with beef competently then you can do it with venison brilliantly :-)

Big BOLD flavour is not a bad thing....:D

Dinner this evening is a rushed job - Venison meatballs, crushed tomatoes and basil with pasta.....

Try using a bit of fallow liver and shoulder meat instead of kidneys. Take the liver from a fallow fawn and then just follow any steak and kidney recipe. Very tasty.

kind regards, Olaf
