225g / 8oz blueberries
175ml / 6fl oz apple juice
2 tbsp Kikkoman Less Salt Soy Sauce
2 tbsp olive oil
4 venison steaks, each about 175g / 6oz

Put about three quarters of the blueberries in a pan, add the apple juice, cover and simmer until soft then liquidise or push through a sieve. Stir in the soy sauce.
Heat half the olive oil in a large frying pan and fry the venison 3-4 minutes each side, depending how rare you like your meat. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining oil and cook the shallots gently for 5 minutes until softened. Pour in the blueberry sauce and stir in the cranberry jelly and thyme.
