Preparation

Toast the bones at 200℃ for around 2 hours, drain the fat and boil the bones in a generous amount of water with celery, carrots and diced onion. Boil for 4-5 hours, continually skimming the fat. Filter the bone and reduce until a game stock reduction (150 mL) is obtained, flavoring with rosemary and bay leaves, a clove of garlic, half a shallot, and salt to taste.
Cut the green of the green onions and blanch them in a generous amount of salted water for a few minutes, strain and chill immediately to preserve the color.
Braise the shallot with a drizzle of oil and then chill it.
Combine the blanched green onions and the braised shallot and blend until you get a dense cream; add salt and pepper to taste.
Clean the asparagus, cut the spears every 5 cm and then in half longways. Blanch them in salted water, keeping them crisp, strain and chill immediately.
Remove the fat from the deer filet, brown in a pan with a bit of oil, thyme, and bay leaves, place it on a baking tray, glaze with the reduction, attach the chopped hazelnuts and insert it in the oven preheated to 180℃ for 9′; afterwards, leave it to rest for about 2-3′.
Put the green onion cream in a pastry bag and make a circle on the serving dish; stain the center of the circle with a bit of the green onion cream. Toss the asparagus with a knob of butter and place them as you like on the serving dish; position the venison filet, laying half in the green circle and add the reduction, trying not to mix with the green onion cream.
