False marinated pot roast with home-made potato dumplings

Having pork loin steaks sitting in the fridge and just waiting to be prepared to eat is one thing, but making Sauerbraten out of pork loin steaks is a challenge.

Sauerbraten is roast beef marinated over 3 days with juniper berries, cloves, red wine etc....I did not want to wait so long and my men were hungry...

Here are the ingredients: 3 portions

3 pork loin steaks

1 -2 oninons

seasoning: clover, nutmeg, salt and pepper, cinnamon

For the potato dumplings:

3 medium potatoes

150 g flour ( I used spelt flour)

 1 egg

1 garlic clove

Salt, Pepper

Add salt and starch in boiling water... about 1 tsp....  first desolved the starch (arrow powder) in cold water and then add it in your boilt water. Very important!

Part 1

Cook the potatoes until they soft, press them through your food press. Then add 1 egg, salt, pepper and flour and make a dough.

Form your dumplings and add them in the prepared boilt water.

Make sure that your stir once in awhile...They will flowed on top of the surface. Done!

Homemade red cabbage:

1/2 red cabbage, 1 apple, salt and pepper, apple vinegar, 1 - 2 bay leaf, 1 -2 cloves, pinch of salt

Part 2

Cut the cabbage in dice and add it in a saute pan. Add your apple (diced), apple vinegar and your seasonings. Simmer the dish for about 30 mins.

Part 3

Season the pork loin steaks with salt and pepper and fry them between 3 -5 mins. depends on their thickness.

Plum Sauce:

Use the caramelized left over from the pork loin steaks and add your  1 minced onion and 1 tbsp. brown sugar. Once the sugar desolved add your soft plums, cloves and cinnamon to the sauce and cook it softly until the plums release their juices. To make the juice thicker use a thicking agent, do not use flour!
