Wild Boar Leg with Honey and Mustard: A Gourmet and Authentic Recipe
Baking in the oven:
Cover the pan with aluminum foil and cook the wild boar leg in the oven for about 1.5-2 hours, depending on the size of the meat. During cooking, every 30 minutes, turn the meat and baste it with the cooking juices to keep it soft.
After about 1.5 hours, remove the aluminum foil and let the meat cook for another 30 minutes, so that it becomes golden brown and caramelized thanks to the honey.
Prepare the sauce:
Once the meat is cooked, transfer it to a plate and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Meanwhile, strain the cooking juices from the pan into a small saucepan. Reduce the sauce over medium heat until it thickens. If desired, add a spoonful of mustard for a stronger flavour.
