Cut the meat into appropriate bite sized portions and brown them in a pan along with the butter, olive oil, chopped onion and all the herbs.

Keep cooking until all the juices have evaporated away. Bathe the meat in the red wine. Cover and let it cook for a further 30 minutes on a low heat, turning the meat from time to time.

Peel the almonds, and with a mortar and pestle crush them together with the pine nuts, the salt grains and pepper.

Pour the milk into the pan along with a knob of butter. Cover the dish again and allow to cook for another 75 minutes.

If the dish is drying out add more milk from time to time, but be aware that the finished boar should be sitting in a creamy sauce.
