Ewalds Tip:

All beef stewing cuts can be prepared in the same way. Only the cooking time depends on the type of meat and its size.

Preparation

Step 1

Brown the unskinned onion halves on their cut sides without oil in a pan lined with aluminium foil until very dark brown.

Step 2

Wash meat briefly with lukewarm water; drain. Bring water to the boil, add meat and cook at a simmer.

Step 3

Keep skimming off the foam that accumulates, and add peppercorns and onion.

Step 4

About 25 minutes before the meat is scheduled to be done, add vegetables, leek and, if desired, granulated bouillon.

Step 5

Remove cooked meat from the broth, cut into finger-thick slices, place on patter and sprinkle with salt and chives.

Step 6

Strain broth and season to taste with salt.

Step 7

Serve with classic accompaniments such as horseradish, apple horseradish, chive sauce or breadcrumb horseradish.
