Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in an electric skillet.

Add 8 oz of drained canned mushrooms to the skillet and stir.

Season the ground venison with salt and pepper, then add it to the skillet with the mushrooms.

Add 1/2 teaspoon of ground mustard and 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper to the mixture.

Add an additional 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper and stir everything together.

Cook the mixture for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of flour over the mixture and stir to incorporate, making a roux.

Pour in evaporated milk and stir to combine, scraping the bottom of the skillet to prevent sticking.

Add approximately 1/2 cup of water to the skillet and stir well.

Turn down the heat and continue stirring until the mixture thickens.
