Ingredients:
1kg deer offal [noumbles] (any mix of heart, lungs, liver, tripe and cleaned intestines)
500ml gode broth (made without breadcrumbs)
100g bread
200ml red wine
60ml red wine vinegar
2 onions, parboiled and finely minced
60ml of the deer's blood

Method:
Bring a pan of lightly-salted water to a boil and add the offal. Cook for about 40 minutes, or until just tender then drain and cut into dice.
In a mortar, mix together the broth and bread until smooth. Place the meat in a pan with the thickened broth then add the wine, vinegar and the minced onion. Bring to a boil and cook, uncovered, for about 10 minutes, or until the deer offal mixture is completely tender.
Mix the blood, powder fort and salt in a mortar. Add a ladleful of the stock and mix to combine. Whisk the blood mixture into the stew and simmer gently until thickened and coloured (do not boil). Turn into a bowl and serve.
