Preparation method

- Remove the meat from the marinade, pat dry, and gently fry in the butter.
- Briefly fry the onion rings alongside the meat.
- Add the vinegar with the herbs and spices, bring to the boil, and skim off the foam.
- Now add the jus de veau and apple spread and leave to gently braise until tender.
Serving suggestions
- Frietje Zoervleisj (a typical Limburg dish in which chips are covered in a thick, sweet, and slightly tangy beef stew).
- Can also be used as a filling for a ravioli with Limburg stewed meat.
- Use in a composition with components of potato, celeriac, and eggplant.
