Cut the rabbit into legs, neck, belly flap and 2-3 pieces of back. If you like, you can also fry the head. Season all parts with salt and pepper and brush with mustard.
Heat the fat in a roaster and fry the parts nicely. Don`t let it turn black, otherwise the mustard will taste bitter! Cut the onion into large pieces and add to fry a little later, but in such a way that it still takes on color.
Deglaze with a little water and add the bay leaf and juniper berries. Put the lid on and let it simmer gently for about 1 - 1 1/2 hours. Every now and then check the liquid and pour in some water.
If the sauce is not strong enough for you, you can simmer everything and roast it again and then add a little water. If necessary, thicken the sauce with flour or cornstarch dissolved in water. We also have red cabbage and dumplings.
