Method

Sauerbraten

In a pot, bring red wine and stock to a boil. Cook over medium heat for 15 minutes.

Filter the sauce through a sieve or colander. Set aside about 100 ml as a marinade for the Flank steaks and let it cool.

Marinate the sliced steaks in the cooled marinade for 3-4 hours in the fridge (longer marination can make the steak too soft).

Place the remaining sauce on the stove over medium heat and add the remaining ingredients, except the cornstarch and raisins. Reduce the heat and simmer for an additional 15 minutes.

Strain the sauce over the raisins and let them soak until softened.

Add salt and pepper to taste. Set the sauce aside until needed.

Cook the Redefine Flank Steak. Remove the Flank steaks from the marinade and pat dry with a paper towel. Heat olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Sear the steak in the hot pan for approximately 3 minutes per side until a caramelised crust forms. Slice the steaks and serve with the sauce, dumplings, and cabbage.

Dumplings

Wash, peel, and quarter the potatoes, then cook until soft.

Mash the potatoes and let them cool, allowing the steam to evaporate.

Season with salt and nutmeg, then mix in the egg yolk and starch.

Shape the mixture into balls.

Bring salted water to a boil, add the dumplings, and simmer for 10-15 minutes.

Red Cabbage

Place the red cabbage in a small pot with the cinnamon stick.

Peel and dice the apple, then add it to the red cabbage.

Cook for 10-15 minutes until combined.

Bon Appetit!
