Ingredients

Method
  • 120 g cake flour
  • 105 g butter
  • 20 g Parmesan, grated
  • 2 g thyme
  • 1 lemon, zested
  • sea salt, to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 T olive oil
  • 250 g pack Woolworths sliced portabellini mushrooms
  • 150 g pack Woolworths shimeji mushrooms
  • 600 g pack Woolworths free-range parcooked pulled venison

Method

Ingredients

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. In a large bowl, mix the flour and 80 g together using your fingertips until it resembles coarse sand. Add the Parmesan, thyme and lemon zest and seasoning.

2. Heat the olive oil and remaining butter in a non-stick pan over a high heat. Sear the mushrooms in batches, seasoning them as you toss them in the pan.

3. Grease a medium-sized cast-iron pan with cooking spray.  Fill the pan with the pulled venison. Scoop the coarse crumbs on top, followed by the mushrooms. Add a final sprinkle of crumb and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until golden brown.
