This is a mouthwatering Swiss specialty dish originating in the town of Zurich, Switzerland. Typically served with Rosti (Swiss hashbrowns), but equally good with mashed potatoes, spaetzle, or dumplings. There are many versions of Geschnetzeltes that can be found throughout the region in restaurants and in home kitchens, alike. I particularly like this version with lemon and parsley.
Another traditional dish from Austria, which is rather easy to make, even though a bit time consuming, but the effort is absolutely worth it. You can find this dish mainly in the south of Austria (I like to think it is a bit Italian-influenced) and sometimes it is the only vegetarian food (apart from salad) to find on a menu (countryside pubs and restaurants). Lucky me,that it is one of my favourites. This dish usually comes with fountains of melted, browned butter, you can either induldge or adjust, e.g. limit, the amount to your preferences :).
Originally it was a recipe for Australian cookies which someone Icelandic made healthy and I made it even healthier, so now it is Austrian. Today, when waiting for the first plate getting ready in the oven i realized that my dream of publishing a cookbook could become true one day. i have told myself it could not as i feel not like having invented lots of recipes myself. On the other hand, I change EVERY SINGLE RECIPE I ever look at and try out so that is just about the same as the just give me an idea and some basic input. I am feeling content about this and feel grateful that I realized that.
This is my cousin’s recipe. A ‘cake’ in Swiss is traditionally one made in a loaf pan. This is a good coffee cake.
This Austrian pancake can be served for breakfast or dessert. This version makes great use of summer time fruits- peaches and blackberries. However, other combinations of fruits, fresh and dried, can be used instead.
