Preparation

  • Remove the rabbit legs and head from the body and de-bone the meat. Chop the leg meat and reserve. De-bone the rabbit meat from the ribs and spine which should resemble a rectangle of flat meat. Pound gently with a mallet to tenderize.
  • Add the chopped leg meat to a blender with the offals, add the cream and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Remove and keep in the fridge.
  • Sauté pancetta and the minced shallot in a hot pan to render the fat and cook the shallot and mushroom with the thyme and chillies until the shallot is soft 4-5 minutes.
  • Remove and chill in the fridge until cool.
  • Mix the blended meat with the pancetta onion and mushroom mixture.
  • Lay a large piece of plastic wrap on the counter then lay down 15 slices of prosciutto.  Then add the flat de-boned rabbit on top of the prosciutto and fill with the stuffing.
  • Tightly wrap the rabbit using the plastic wrap to roll firmly.  Wrap again in aluminium foil and twist the ends to tighten the terrine inside.
  • Poach or sous vide at 55 Celsius for 3 hours. Remove and chill in ice water.
  • Slice the terrine and serve with a sweet compote, agrodolce or mustard and pickles.
