Ingredients6

• reindeer meat, thinly sliced600 g
• butter50 g
• yellow onion1
• water100 ml
• salt1 tsp
• black pepper1/2 tsp

Method

1. Slice the onion thinly.
2. Melt the butter in a heavy pan over high heat and brown the reindeer meat in batches so it sears rather than stews.
3. Return all the meat to the pan, add the onion, and cook until the onion softens.
4. Season with salt and black pepper, pour in the water, and simmer uncovered until the liquid reduces to a light gravy, about 15 minutes.
5. Taste and adjust the seasoning, then serve hot, traditionally with mashed potatoes and lingonberry jam.
