Ingredients

  • Back and hind legs of one rabbit,
  • salt,
  • bacon,
  • garlic,
  • lard,
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar

Directions

1

After taking the meat out of the marinade, wash with cold water, rub with salt and let sit for approx. 1 hour.

2

Then dry and interlard with pieces of bacon and garlic cloves.

3

Grease a pan with lard, set the meat inside, pour 1/2 cup water, add a little salt and a tablespoon of vinegar or better yet 1/2 cup wine.

4

Place 1 tablespoon lard over the meat and roast at medium heat, taking care to baste every 10-15 minutes with the pan drippings.

5

When ready, slice, arrange on the platter and pour the pan dripping over the meat.

6

If there is too little sauce, after the meat is removed, add 2 tablespoons of water and let come to a boil on top of the range.

7

The sauce may be served separately in a gravy boat.

8

Serve the meat with beet salad.
