Techniques
  • 2 whole potatoes
  • 4 tbsp white cheddar
  • 3 tbsp parsley
  • 1 tbsp fresh oregano
  • 1 tbsp red and green spicy chili peppers
  • 1 cloves garlic
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 2–3 sprigs rosemary
  • 2–3 sprigs thyme
  • 3–4 sprigs fresh oregano
  • 14-day aged venison leg medallions
Pat the medallions dry and leave on the counter 20 to 30 minutes to take the chill off.
Shred the potatoes into thin strands.
  • oil
  • butter
  • salt
  • black pepper
In a pan over medium heat with a splash of oil and a few knobs of butter, season the base with salt and pepper, add a thick layer of potato, grate in white cheddar, add oregano and another layer of potato. Cook a few minutes until golden brown, then flip.
  • oregano
Finish in the oven at 350F for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • chives
  • 1 whole lemon
  • vinegar or lemon juice
Chimichurri: finely chop parsley, chili peppers, oregano and chives into a small bowl; grate in garlic and lemon zest, season with salt and pepper, add olive oil and finish with a little vinegar or lemon juice. Mix.
  • kosher salt
  • crushed black, green and red peppercorns
Season the medallions generously with kosher salt and crushed peppercorns; sear in a little oil over medium-high heat until lightly golden.
  • garlic
Add butter, garlic, rosemary, thyme and oregano; pan roast and baste until well crusted, about seven minutes total, to medium to medium rare.
Pour the drippings over and rest five to ten minutes.
  • vine ripe garden tomatoes
Char the tomatoes with a torch and finish with olive oil, salt and black pepper.
  • 2 whole eggs
Fry two eggs until the whites are set and the yolks still sunny; rest them beside the drippings.
Slice the venison thinly against the grain.
Plate the hash brown as a base, top with the eggs, venison slices around them, spoonfuls of chimichurri and the charred tomatoes.
