Roasted Rabbit with Mashed Potatoes and Peas

Roasted Rabbit with Mashed Potatoes and Peas is an easy and simple main course with equally simple side dishes for those who enjoy traditional recipes! The mashed potatoes are a very tasty preparation suitable for everyone, both young and old, for which it is essential to use the right variety of tuber, those that are very floury and white-fleshed.

In the refrigerator, mashed potatoes keep for 2/3 days well protected with plastic wrap; you can also reheat them over very low heat with a little milk if you don’t need them right away.

The meat of rabbit is white and lean and is considered hypoallergenic, so it is almost never the subject of food allergies, so much so that it is often used in the formulation of baby food.

Roasted Rabbit is a traditional Italian dish, especially in the North, specifically in Lombardy. Instead of adding wine during cooking, it is the marinade with aromatic herbs that tenderizes the rabbit meat, making it very tasty, despite its extreme simplicity of cooking and added seasonings.
