Roasted Wild Boar
Healthy, because

Nutritional values
The wild boar meat is free of harmful substances and comes from species-appropriate husbandry, which is a definite plus for many people. beta-carotene from the carrots gives us a fresh skin stone. Onions and leeks provide sulphides (secondary plant substances), which not only make up the smell but also effectively combat pathogens.
Compared to the domestic pig, the wild boar tastes a little spicier and more intense. The wild boar season begins as early as June and ends in January. If you buy the meat directly from the hunter, you should ask if the meat has been checked for trichinae.
A creamy mashed potato and broccoli au gratin (omit the curry dip) goes well with the leg.
