Moose Stew with Mashed Potato

Serves ?

Stew:
chunks of moose meat (or beef) (~500g)
flour
salt
pepper
small onions (eschalottes)
mushrooms
vegetable stock
1/2 cup red wine

Mashed potato:
potatoes, peeled & cut into 2cm squares
egg yolk
milk
butter
salt
pepper

Tossed meat in flour with salt & pepper, then browned in a pan.
Put in a casserole dish with onions & mushrooms, vegetable stock (not quite covering the stew) & red wine.
Bake, covered, in a slow oven (120°C) for 3 to 4 hours.
Correct the seasoning with salt & pepper after cooked.
Serve over mashed potatoes: boil potatoes until soft, then mash, mixing with egg yolk, milk, butter, salt & pepper to taste.
Mmm... A true Alaskan dish! (I'm sure!)
