Hrossakjöt (horse meat)

Instructions

1. Take the meat out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking. Pat it dry and season it generously with salt and crushed pepper.
2. Heat the oil in a heavy pan over high heat until it lightly smokes.
3. Sear the meat for 2 minutes on each side to form a good crust, then lower the heat.
4. Add the butter, crushed garlic and juniper berries, then baste the meat with the flavoured butter for 5 minutes.
5. Let the meat rest for 5 minutes under a sheet of foil before slicing it thinly.
6. Serve with the boiled potatoes, sprinkled with parsley, and blueberry jam if you like.
