- Meat from 1 hare hind legs or 2 foreleg joints
- 1 clove crushed garlic
- 1 tsp dried mixed herbs or fresh thyme
- A little oil
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 1/3 bottle red wine
- pinch chilli flakes
- 30g dark chocolate
- Splash brandy
- Pasta or rice to serve
Method

- Put the meat into the blender in batches to mince the meat.
- Take the ground meat and put it into a bowl add the garlic, herbs and beaten egg. Mix well with your hands and form into small balls.
- Fry the onion in some oil Until it is starting to brown.
- Dust the meat balls with flour and add to the pan.
- Stir them gently as they cook. Once the outsides of the meatballs have browned, add the red wine and chilli flakes and simmer gently.
- When the volume of liquid has reduced considerably and the sauce is getting fairly thick, add the chocolate.
