Instructions

Sauté the venison in hot butter. Add the mushrooms and the orange juice and season with marjoram, salt and pepper. Cook until all the liquid has evaporated. Remove the pan from heat, pour in the Cognac and ignite to flambé. Allow to cool slightly, then mix in the single cream and the chopped parsley.

Roll out the puff pastry and divide into 20 equal squares. Spoon on each square 1-2 tablespoons of the venison filling, moisten the edges and fold the pastry over the filling. Firmly press the edges together.

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Whisk the egg yolks together with the milk and brush the venison pockets with the egg wash.

Rinse the baking sheet with cold water, place the pockets on it and allow to rest for 15 minutes.

Transfer the baking sheet into the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes.
