Rouleau of rabbit, dates, pata negra, and a sherry jelly
Creation by Maurits van der Vooren. Recipe makes about 750 grams.
Ingredients
| 500 gram | rabbit loin |
| 10 | dates |
| 200 ml | water |
| 400 ml | sherry |
| 30 g | maple syrup |
| 42 g | Vegetal (Sosa) |
| 5 slices | thinly-sliced pata negra ham |
Instructions
- Remove the bones from the rabbit and lightly season the fillets with salt and pepper.
- Roll up the meat tightly with cling film, pull vacuum, and then cook in the Roner at 62°C for an hour.
- Remove the stones from the dates and then place the dates between sheets of plastic film and beat flat. Then use a rolling pin to roll out the dates into a nice thin rectangular slice (freeze briefly to make it easier to remove from the plastic film).
- Add some water to the sherry and then flavour with a little maple syrup.
- Thicken with Vegetal (70g per litre liquid) and pour the liquid out thinly onto a tray.
- Place the set jelly on several layers of film.
- Place the date slices on top and cover them with the pata negra.
- Place the rabbit at the end of the sheet of jelly and roll up nice and tightly.
