Who knew putting cauliflower and parsnips together would be so good! I didn't add any milk to it because my boyfriend isn't a big dairy person, and I added some. Elk is very lean and also very tender when cooked slowly on low heat (or quickly on high heat). It is very low in calories, fat and cholesterol and high in protein.
Steps to make Brad's elk bourguignon w/ mashed cauliflower and parsnips:
- Chop bacon and fry off in a LG frying pan. Remove to a LG dutch oven.
- Meanwhile, cut elk roast into 1 inch cubes. Remove all silver skin, fat, or tendon.
- Mix flour and seasonings in a LG bowl.
- Fry onion and garlic in the bacon grease until sweated and translucent. Do not brown.
- Add the onion, garlic, basil, beef stock, and wine to the Dutch oven and bring to a boil.
- Add oil to the bacon fat. Roll elk in flour. Knock off excess flour and fry in batches. Add to dutch oven when done. In between batches remove flour from pan and add a little oil.
- Simmer the mixture for 1 1/2 to 2 hours uncovered. Stir often. This should reduce and thicken up nicely.
- Meanwhile add parsnips and cauliflower to a saucepot. Just cover with water. Bring to a simmer and cook until just tender. Drain water. Add rest of parsnip ingredients and mash until smooth, but slightly chunky.
- When sauce thickens and elk is tender, slice baguette on a bias. Butter and slightly toast. Spread creme fraiche over baguette. Sprinkle with cheese. Cover with elk and sauce. Serve parsnips on the side. Serve immediately. Enjoy.
Hints: I cook a batch of bacon in advance and keep in the freezer to add at the end. Browning the meat is key to the rich flavour. Mashed parsnips are made very similarly to mashed potatoes and can be substituted into any meal you would usually serve with mashed potatoes. Mashed parsnips are full of much more flavor, slightly sweet, but the same great texture. Cauliflower parsnip mash is a simple, gluten free, vegetarian, low carb side dish!
