Brian Turner served up grilled wild boar fillet with roasted beetroot and cumin in Somerset on a Taste Of Britain.
Brian sourced is meat from Wooden Top Farm in Somerset, one of the leading suppliers of wild boar in the county.
The farm claims that: Wild Boar is extremely healthy with 30% less fat than pork. The meat has a sweet, nutty, and intense flavour. Wild boar meat is leaner and deeper red than pork; meat of the young boar is very tender. Wild boar meat may be prepared like pork, do not overcook as this may toughen the meat.
Brian wasted no time in putting this meat to the test cooking his wild boar fillet dish for Janet Street-Porter to try.
