Mother's Day Dinner Inspired by Heston

We had a lovely Mother's Day - at least in my opinion. However, Mrs M seems to agree.

Dinner was actually based on two separate ideas. A few years ago my wife got a book on light eating and one of the ideas was Venison Steak with a black pepper and Juniper Berries crust.

The other inspiration was based on Heston Blumenthal's roasted artichokes dish.We had a a lovely dinner. However, when we explained that venison an deer are the same thing, it would have helped if we wouldn't have seen Bambi's relative  on our walk through Swinley's Forrest


It wasn't really a problem though and dinner was a real success.


                                                                                                                                                                    We had venison steak in a crushed black pepper and juniper berry crust with steamed broccoli, sauteed mushrooms and artichokes, based on a recipe from Heston Blumenthal's "Fat Duck Cook Book".
