COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

  1. To make the marinade, blend all the ingredients in a blender or food processor – the mixture should be chunky. Pour over the venison steaks and chill overnight. 
  2. Grill the steaks and set aside to rest.  
    Toss the mixed leaves, cucumbers, tomatoes and green beans, then place on a platter. Slice the venison steaks and place on top of the leaves. 
  3. Garnish with the mint, coriander and blood oranges, then pour over the dressing.

Cook’s note: if using a braai, the steaks can be grilled for 8–10 minutes over a high heat. Alternatively, they can be seared on the stovetop for 2–3 minutes on each side, or to your liking.
