My husband used to call me “Mon Petit Lapin” meaning “My Little Rabbit”.
I learned this recipe from him (originally from his mother) but he let me experiment in our kitchen so here’s my version:
1 whole rabbit, cut into desired size.
2 to 3 large white onions(chopped)
1 large tomato
1/2 cup each- red pepper/green pepper(capsicum), 1 medium carrot(sliced or diced)
½ cup tomato sauce
1 cup mushrooms of your choice(button, shiitake, maitake etc.)
½ cup green whole olives(preferably not pitted)
3 tbsp. madeira wine
2 bay leaves
salt and pepper
2 to 3 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive oil
Cut the whole rabbit into pieces(desired size). Wash then rinse and place in a casserole, cover and start boiling with ¼ cup of water. Then after few minutes(5 minutes) take out 90% broth leaving only a few drops of broth and stir fry(without oil) with garlic, onions for 3 minutes then add tomato, continue stir frying for 2 minutes then add mushrooms, carrots, tomato sauce, bay leaves. Let simmer for 30 minutes then add green/red peppers, green olives, madeira, salt & pepper and continue cooking for another 5 minutes. Add and stir extra virgin olive oil after cooking.
