Roe deer fillet

Combining chocolate with savoury can work amazingly well, especially game and red poultry. Both ingredients have interesting bitters in common. Chocolate makes the dish a bit rounder and adds a touch of sweetness to it. Chocolate is mostly used to flavour the sauce and create a deeper, more intense and round flavour.
