Baked Rabbit on Embers

I offer you a real masterpiece of culinary art!

Baked Rabbit on EmbersIngredients:

1 rabbit slightly boiled
clear soup
Rice
Carrots and mushrooms roughly chopped
Small onions
Garlic
Tomatoes peeled and finely chopped
Spices: sunflower seed oil, paprika, black pepper, bay leaves, parsley

Method:

Make a fire to get embers and hot ashes. Take a big baking tin and put in the rice, carrots and mushrooms. Add cloves of garlic and some onions. Both should be unpeeled (leave the last brown peel of the onion). This will add distinctive flavour to the dish. The garlic tastes sweet and makes the dish delicious. The rabbit is slightly boiled in some salty water seasoned with bay leaves and black pepper. You can cut the rabbit into pieces if you like. If you have more time and patience, bake the game without boiling it. Put the rabbit into the baking tin and pour in the clear soup the rabbit was boiled in, keeping the ratio of rice to water 1:5. Add tomatoes and season with salt, black pepper, parsley, paprika and bay leaves. Stir well and wrap the tin in foil. Set in the hot ashes to bake. Keep over low heat (if it is high, the dish will burn sideways). Remove from heat after 2 hours. If raw meat is used, baking takes 3 hours!
The dish can be cooked in an earthenware pot at home.
This is a special treat to wash down with sparkling wine or beer at an open-air party with friends.

Enjoy your meal!
