Gather @vegetable oil{2%tbsp}.

Pat the @bison{800%g} cubes dry, toss with the @rice flour{2%tbsp}, and brown in batches in hot oil until deeply crusted; set aside.

Soften the @onion{1}, @carrot{3}, @celery{2%stalk} and @garlic{3%clove} in the same pot, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom.

Return the bison to the pot with the @beef stock{1%l} and @bay leaf{2%leaf}; bring to a simmer.

Cover and simmer gently 1½ hours, until the meat is fork-tender. ~{90%minutes}

Meanwhile, rinse the @wild rice{150%g} and cook separately in salted water until the grains split and curl, about 45 minutes; drain. ~{45%minutes}

Stir the cooked wild rice into the stew for the final 10 minutes so it soaks up the broth. ~{10%minutes}

Discard the bay leaf and adjust seasoning before serving.
