Rabbit in white wine with mushrooms


We love to prepare traditional dishes like today's, and we have eaten this rabbit stew all our life, not only because of how delicious it is, but because rabbit meat is very healthy due to its low fat content.


Ingredients for 2 people:
- 1/2 chopped rabbit
- 1 potato
- 1 clove garlic
- 5 mushrooms
- 3.5 oz of white wine
- Olive oil
- Chopped parsley
- Salt
- Black pepper


Recipe:
- Clean the mushrooms and cut them into small squares.
- Peel the garlic and cut it into very small squares.
- Wash and peel the potato and peel it.
- In a frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil, sauté the garlic over medium heat until browned.
- Add the rabbit pieces, salt and pepper them and seal them (cook them so that they brown a little on the outside but on the inside they are not done yet).
- Remove them from the pan and reserve.
- Add the mushroom and potato and cook for a few minutes until they soften.
- Bring the rabbit back in.
- Pour in the white wine and let it cook until it evaporates almost completely.
