Method

Preparation of Rabbit

  1. 1

    Prepare the Rabbit

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Season the saddle of rabbit with salt and pepper. In a large ovenproof skillet, heat some butter over medium-high heat. Sear the rabbit on all sides until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer to the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes or until cooked through. Let rest before slicing.

Cooking Schupfnudeln and Vegetables

  1. 2

    Prepare Schupfnudeln

    In a pot of boiling salted water, cook Schupfnudeln according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

  2. 3

    Prepare Salsify and Carrots

    Peel the salsify and carrots. Cut the carrots into thin sticks and the salsify into 1-inch pieces. In a skillet, melt some butter and sauté the salsify and carrots until tender, about 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Making the Sauce

  1. 4

    Prepare the Sauce

    In the same skillet used for the rabbit, add the brandy and scrape up any browned bits. Allow the brandy to reduce by half. Stir in the red currant jelly and stock, and simmer for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

Plating

  1. 5

    Serve the Dish

    Slice the rested saddle of rabbit and place it on a plate. Arrange the Schupfnudeln, sautéed salsify, and carrots around it. Top with braised red cabbage and drizzle with the red currant jus. Serve immediately.
