Gail's Grilled Venison with Savory Fruit Sauce

from Gail, 1/11/00:

i just made some last night.

took some vension and cut it into steaks about 1in thick about 4 ins around.
marinated it in soy sauce and garlic.
throw it on the grill and cook fast(about 4 mins a side) until brown.

in pan fry up 1/4 onion, chopped in 1 tbs.oil until soft.

add any sweet alcohol (brandy) about 1/4 cup, cook off a little.
add 1 cup stock or water.
any kind of tart jam(raspberry?) about 3 tbs. and some herbs(my fav. is thyme).

cook till it reduces a little and pour over steaks, came out yummy.

served it with potatoes sliced and boiled till almost tender, dumped into baking dish, pour on some cream (from where ever you like!) and top with some sharp cheese.

bake till melted and golden.

hope you like it.
