- After 1 1/4 hours, remove from oven, stir gently and add the chestnuts.
- Return to oven for another hour.

- Remove from oven, stir gently, check that the venison is nice and tender.

- Serve with desired accompaniments. I always have potatoes and choose from red cabbage, Brussels sprouts, parsnips, even more carrots. Any winter vegetables go well with this dish.
