Pork for Peasants

This dish is reminiscent of my Grandma’s awesome Austrian cooking. I got the idea for this dish from a Mr. Food pressure-cooker recipe. I changed some ingredients and adapted it for crockpot. I prefer a slightly fattier cut of pork because it comes out so tender and flavorful. I’ve served this for dinner parties, and people always ask for a second helping. I serve this with egg noodles and applesauce. True comfort food!

Austrian Walnut Torte With Coffee Whipped Cream

This lovely dessert would have been the featured pastry at “Jause” –a lovely old German/Austrian custom of pausing in the afternoon for cake and coffee and conversation. Prep time does not include time for cooling the torte layers.

Chicken Paprika in Yogurt Sauce

This from a book called Recipes For Change by Molly Siple and Lissa DeAngelis. This is a dilightful low fat entree you will enjoy! You may use sour cream instead of the yogurt if you wish(skip the part about draining).

Wiener Schnitzel

This is such a tasty, but easy, way to prepare veal. A long-standing favourite, and lovely in summer with braised red cabbage, potato salad, and a tossed green salad. Preparation time does not include marinading or setting breadcrumbs in fridge.

Viennese Biscuits

soft melt in the mouth biscuits, I suppose originally from Vienna. So simple and economical, can be made in half an hour
