article of 09.02.2023

A three-part recipe for four and a unique indulgence.

This dish is one of our absolute classics at the Burg Hotel. This marbled meat with its especially high fat content unfolds a truly special flavor.

HOMAGE TO A PIC

MEAT:

4 pieces of Duroc pork cutlet approx. 200 – 280 g each

CRUST:

150 g butter
2 egg yolks
50 g breadcrumbs
50 g truffle butter
Salt, pepper, nutmeg, thyme, rosemary

Sear pork cutlets on both sides, then move to a tray, cover with rosemary and thyme and bake in the oven for 8 – 10 min. at 180°C (fan) until nearly cooked. Then switch the oven setting to grill or top heat, spread the finished crust evenly across the meat portion of the cutlet and cook “au gratin” until golden brown.

For the crust, beat the butter and truffle butter until creamy. Add egg yolks and breadcrumbs. Beat for a bit longer and then add salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste.

Slowly roast veal bones in the oven (for approx. 50 min at 150°C). Roughly chop the vegetables and roast slowly in a pot, then add the onions last.
