Goetta is often compared to scrapple or breakfast sausage. I found this recipe in a wild game cook book. Ingredients:
1 lb ground venison |
2 cups hot water |
1 medium onion, finely chopped |
1 bay leaf, finely crumbled |
1/2 teaspoon coarse black pepper |
1 1/2 cups oatmeal |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon onion powder |
1/2 teaspoon thyme |
1 1/2 teaspoons sage |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (*) |
Directions:
1. Combine venison, hot water and onion in a large skillet.
2. Strip bay leaf from vein and finely crumble into skillet.
3. Simmer until meat is no longer pink and onion is tender. Add pepper, oatmeal and salt. Stir quickly and cook for 3 minutes.
4. Remove from heat and season with onion powder, thyme, sage, nutmeg and crushed red pepper.
5. Spoon meat mixture into loaf pan sprayed with vegetable oil spray. Let stand until firm.
6. Remove from pan, cut loaf in half and wrap each half in plastic wrap.
7. Freeze one and refrigerate the other.
8. To use, slice meat 1/4-inch thick, coat gently with flour and pan fry in small amount of butter or vegetable oil until broned on each side. Serve with eggs and toast for breakfast.
9. *you can add more crushed red pepper flakes to taste.
