TRUFFLE POTATOES
Boil the kettle. Place the Potato pieces in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add a knob of butter (optional) and a splash of water or milk (optional). Mash with a fork, mix through the truffle seasoning, and cover.

SEARED VENISON
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the venison dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the venison until browned, 2-3 minutes per side (for medium-rare). In the final 1-2 minutes, baste the venison with a knob of butter. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 3-5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
RED WINE SAUCE
Dilute the stock mix with 50ml of boiling water. Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil.

Pour in the red wine and the diluted stock mix. Simmer until thickening, 4-5 minutes. Remove from the heat, add 1 tsp of sweetener (optional), and season.
