Aunt Hilda’s Armadillo in Mustard Sauce
Ingredients:
A medium-sized (dead) armadillo, cleaned and chopped into bite-sized pieces
Marinade
1 1/4 cups dry white wine
1/2 cup oil
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/4 cup butter
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 tsp. thyme
1/2 tsp. rosemary
1 med. onion, sliced thin
1 1/4 cups light cream
1 tbsp. mustard
1 tbsp. cornstarch
Mix all the ingredients together and marinate overnight. Remove the armadillo and save the marinade.
Melt the butter in a deep skillet and put in the armadillo pieces. When they are brown, pour in the marinade and bring to a boil. Stir in seasoning, cover and simmer until tender. Remove armadillo to a warm platter.
Mix the mustard and cornstarch together and mix in the cream. With the skillet on low heat, stir this mixture in a little at a time and let it thicken. Put the armadillo on a bed of steamed rice and pour the sauce over it.
