Instructions :

First of all chop the boar's meat in small cubes. Marinate it during 24 hours in plenty of red wine, juniper berries, sage, rosemary, laurel and garlic. At the time of cooking separate the meat from the marinade. Cut thinly onion, celery and carrot and put them in a casserole with olive oil. Warm it up at moderate flame and add the wild boar. Brown the meat being careful to not burn it and revolve often. Add the tomatoes, cover and cook it with low flame during 60 minutes. Add salt and pepper. During the cooking time, if the sauce is becoming too thick add few spoons of the marinade or broth.
