Step 1
Wash the rabbit, pat dry with a paper towel. Divide into small portions. Rub each piece with a mixture of peppers and salt. Leave it on for 10-15 minutes. To make the rabbit meat juicy, do not rub it with salt beforehand, but quite a bit. It is best to generously salt the sour cream sauce in which the meat will be stewed.
Step 2
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet. Dip each piece of meat in flour, then fry on all sides. The rabbit should have a golden crust; for this, each piece should be fried for 5-7 minutes.
Step 3
Peel the onion and garlic. Finely chop the onion, and pass the garlic through a press. Transfer the finished meat to a saucepan. Fry the onions in a skillet until golden brown.
Step 4
Add fried onions, garlic, 2 cups boiled water, sour cream and bay leaf to the stewpan to the meat. Simmer covered for 10-15 minutes over medium heat. Serve the dish, pre-garnished with sprigs of fresh herbs.
Step 5
The rabbit in sour cream definitely needs a side dish. This can be mashed potatoes, boiled rice, or pasta. The most successful side dish is boiled potatoes. Serve meat only hot. You can decorate the dish with dill, parsley and green onions.
