  • Sear the 750 grams Lean beef brisket slices over high heat briefly, so both sides are browned. About 30 seconds per side is enough. Remove the slices from the pan.

  • Bring to a boil and let it simmer for 4.5 hours.
  • About 15 minutes before the meat is ready, heat up the deep fryer. Once it reaches the correct temperature, fry the 700 grams fries for the time indicated on the package—6 minutes in my case.

Plating

  • Spoon about 175 grams of fries per person into a deep plate.
  • Top the fries with a layer of stewed beef, about 175 grams per plate.
  • Spoon a portion of the ham cubes and mini sausages on top.
  • The top layer is about 50 grams of grated cheese per person.
  • Add the sauce to the plate to taste.

Did you taste it?

  • If you want more flavor, you can sprinkle salt over the fries.
  • Not a fan of curry? Add half a tablespoon of curry powder and, for color, half a tablespoon of turmeric.
