Subj : St. Gerard 01 (Csanad) To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Tue Feb 23 2021 10:12:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Gerard's Cat Chasseur Categories: Game, Mushrooms, Wine Yield: 4 Servings 2 Cats; cleaned, skinned, in - serving pieces * 1/4 c Oil 1/4 c Onions; chopped 1 lb Mushrooms; sliced 2 md Tomatoes, chopped Flour Salt & White pepper 3 Turkish bay leaves 1 tb Tomato paste 2 c White wine MMMMM------------------------BUERRE MANIE----------------------------- 2 tb Flour 2 tb Butter Heat the oil in a skillet and dust the cat with flour. Brown the cat over high heat quickly then pour off the oil and fats that accumulate. Add onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, flour, salt, pepper, bay leaves, and tomato paste and cook for 5 minutes. Add the wine and bring the mixture to a boil. Set your oven @ 350ºF/175ºC. Bake the cat in your oven for 45 minutes. Remove the cat and thicken the sauce with the beurre manie (you know that fancy chefs have to have fancy names ... this is a "roux".) For the beurre manie, simply melt the butter in a saute pan, add the flour and then cook over medium heat for a minute or two to take the "floury" flavor out of the mix. Pour the sauce over the cat and serve. * Rabbit may be substituted if suitable cats cannot be located and dispatched.
