facebook share image   twitter share image   pinterest share image   E-Mail share image

Wurzelfleisch is a classic Austrian dish that combines the savory flavors of beef and sour cream. The name "wurzelfleisch" literally means "root meat" in German, and the dish is thought to have originated in the mountainous regions of Austria. Traditional wurzelfleisch recipes call for beef chuck roast or short ribs, which are braised in a flavorful broth made with carrots, celery, onions, garlic, and various herbs and spices. Once the beef is tender, it is removed from the broth and sliced. The broth is then thickened with a roux and combined with sour cream to create a rich and creamy sauce. The beef is then returned to the sauce and served over egg noodles or mashed potatoes.

Provided by Betty Crocker Kitchens

Categories     Entree

Time 2h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 cup Original Bisquick™ mix
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon regular or smoked paprika
1 1/2 lb beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable shortening
3 large carrots, sliced
1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
2 to 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 can (14.5 oz) Muir Glen™ organic fire roasted crushed tomatoes
Water
1 bag (12 oz) frozen sweet peas
2/3 cup sour cream
1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cups Original Bisquick™ mix
1/3 cup sour cream
1/3 cup water
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • In large bowl, stir together 1/2 cup Bisquick mix, the 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper and the paprika. Add beef; stir until beef is evenly coated.
  • In ovenproof 4-quart Dutch oven or 12-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add beef; cook until browned on all sides. Stir in carrots, onion, garlic and tomatoes. Add just enough water to barely cover beef and vegetables. Reduce heat to low. Cover tightly; cook 1 hour 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is tender.
  • Stir in peas. Cover; cook 15 to 30 minutes longer or until peas are tender.
  • Heat oven to 425°F. Remove Dutch oven from heat; stir in 2/3 cup sour cream and the Worcestershire sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Place Dutch oven in oven to keep hot while making biscuits. (You can also transfer mixture to 2-quart casserole dish at this time if Dutch oven or skillet is not ovenproof.)
  • To make Sour Cream Chive Biscuits, in medium bowl, stir together biscuit ingredients until a soft dough forms. For rolled biscuits, place dough on floured work surface; gently smooth dough into a ball and knead 5 times. With rolling pin, roll out dough until 1/2-inch thick. Cut with floured 2-inch cutter into biscuits. For drop biscuits, do not make ball or knead dough; drop dough by spoonfuls onto hot beef mixture. (Drop any remaining dough onto greased cookie sheet.)
  • Bake 15 to 20 minutes (bake biscuits on cookie sheet 10 minutes) or until light golden brown.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality beef chuck roast or stew meat. Look for meat that is well-marbled with fat, as this will help to keep the meat moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Don't be afraid to season the beef generously with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the natural flavor of the meat.
  • Browning the beef in batches will help to prevent the meat from stewing in its own juices. This will result in a more flavorful and evenly cooked dish.
  • Be sure to cook the onions and garlic until they are soft and fragrant. This will help to add sweetness and depth of flavor to the sauce.
  • Use a good quality sour cream for the sauce. Look for sour cream that is thick and creamy, and avoid using sour cream that is too thin or watery.
  • Serve the wurstfleich with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or spaetzle. You can also serve it with a side of roasted vegetables or a salad.

Conclusion:

Wurstfleich is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a cold winter night. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your wurstfleich mild or spicy, this recipe is sure to please. So next time you're looking for a comforting and flavorful meal, give wurstfleich a try.
