Preparation

40 minutes preparation + 2 hours cooking

Carefully clean the hare and marinate all the giblets for 4 hours in a bottle of red wine, a handful of pine nuts, some well-cleaned raisins, a teaspoon of ground cinnamon, the chopped zest of half a lemon and three spoonfuls of sugar. Cut the hare into regular-sized pieces, and put into a pan containing equal parts of butter and lard (in abundance), a chopped onion, salt and pepper. When the onion has become golden, sprinkle on a tablespoon of flour and add the innards with their marinade. Cook the hare very slowly, adding stock from time to time.
