Preparation method
1
Preheat oven to 160 °C top/bottom heat. Cut vegetables into coarse cubes. Lightly crush juniper berries.

Pat venison leg dry all over. Season generously with salt & pepper.

Heat 2 tbsp oil strongly in a roasting pan. Brown the leg vigorously all over (fond at the bottom of the pan is flavor!). Remove meat.
Chef's tip
Salt in advance: Salt 30–60 min before roasting – provides better seasoning. Wine: Dry red wine (e.g., Pinot Noir, Blaufränkisch). More fruit: 1–2 tbsp cranberry juice from the jar in the sauce rounds out the acidity. Reheating: Often tastes even better the next day; gently warm in the oven at 120 °C with a little sauce.
