Wild Boar Haunch with Potato-Pumpkin Purée

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

This autumn-inspired game dish requires a bit of planning—you're marinating the wild boar haunch the evening before so the meat becomes tender and flavorful. The next day involves searing and slow-roasting for about two hours until everything falls apart beautifully, while you finish things off with a smooth, rich sauce. It all comes together with a velvety potato-pumpkin purée for a cozy, warming meal that's worth the wait.

    Marinade

    The evening before, peel one onion and the root vegetables, chop them, and fry in lard. Pour in the red wine, turn off the heat, and let the marinade cool. Add the meat to the cooled marinade.

About this recipe

Autumn is probably the most popular time of year for cooking game. It's usually miserable outside, which makes it all the more tempting to let something bubble away slowly on the stove at home. This wild boar haunch recipe came together partly through improvisation and partly thanks to some careful study of the book Culinaria France the night before.
