Rabbit in sauce
Description
The recipe won't take much time. To prepare rabbit in sauce, you'll need a fresh medium-sized rabbit, a pot (or casserole dish) suitable for baking in the oven, and for the sauce—sour cream and French mustard. By the way, you can simply simmer it on the stovetop in the pot if you don't want to turn on the oven. Soak the rabbit in water with added lemon juice for about half an hour beforehand. See the recipe below. Serve hot.
