I like to host guests at my home from time to time, and I am gathering  recipes of different dishes and drinks to keep things interesting. I am interested in trying some Belgium dishes. Can you give me a recipe for Lapin aux Pruneaux?

Sure! In this recipe the prunes are the only thing that has been removed from a lapin à la moutarde, or “hare with mustard”. Here’s a step by step guide on how to make this at home:

Okay so the lapin is referring to rabbit in this recipe, and the pruneaux is referencing the prunes?

Yes that’s correct, in France they generally use rabbit, and in the UK you can use hare.  The other part, the sauce part, is a reduction of onions, wine, and the cooking liquid of the prunes.  In France they traditionally use Burgundy wine, but a good quality dry red wine will work well for this dish.  In fact, the exact type of wine is fairly flexible.

So this dish is French in origin, not Belgium?
