The Frikadelle, the Boulette, the Fleischpflanzerl, the Fleischküchle and whatever else there are all sorts of names in Germany for this fried minced meat structure. Some even suspect the origin of the hamburger in it. It should have been taken along as a travel provisions on the America liner and so have become a hamburger. The crossing of the emigrants lasted at least six weeks and I do not dare to imagine the smell and taste of a...

This is the most German way to enjoy raw meat. There's tartar, raw minced beef, known internationally. In Japan, they have tataki, meat that's briefly cooked all over but still raw inside. Raw minced pork, however, is probably only available in Germany, and then only in certain regions.
Let's move on to the capital, Berlin, where it's known as chopped stippe, then as a Mettbrötchen in the Ruhr area and even as far as Hesse.

And another of countless stir-fries with ground beef and bell peppers, this time a bit spicier. In this stir-fry, the peppers are truly the dominant ingredient, with the tomatoes appearing only in a little tomato paste for the sauce.
In warm weather I could live off something like this all the time. 2 servings Ingredients:
3 tbsp olive oil
300 g ground beef
50 g striped onion
200 g striped bell peppers
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp hot...

The same trick as with Swabian ravioli Maultaschen. Friday is fasting day, so there's no meat. Swabians hide their meat in pasta dough to hide it from God; I hide the meat in a squid tube.
Both are actually hypocritical, but I don't care, since I have nothing to do with the imaginary friend in heaven anyway.
What's essential for the minced meat filling is a sufficient amount of garlic. It has to have a really strong flavor. I know it...

Slavinken is Dutch for salad finches. These were actually songbirds, wrapped in bacon and served on a bed of lettuce. At some point, people apparently realized that songbirds were becoming increasingly rare and placed them under protection. Presumably at the same time, they came up with the idea that the whole thing would taste just as good with a ground meat mixture.
Today's recipe uses mixed ground meat (beef/pork); I made it with...

A Swedish member of a Facebook group gave me the idea of making a burger from game meat. It is comparatively easy for him to go into the forest and shoot his own dinner. When cutting the animals, there are naturally a number of sections that are ideal for minced meat. Of course, it's not that easy in Germany, I have to buy my meat in the supermarket or from a game dealer who runs his shop in the Stuttgart market hall. I have...

From where the dish has the thankless name ‚Fraaß‘ (grub, muck), unfortunately is not known, but it is a very tasty casserole from cabbage and a meatball dough.
This version differs slightly from the original recipe, which contains much more cabbage than minced meat and no caraway and much more bread in the minced meat. I prefer a proper ‚Frikadellen‘ (meatball) dough in which the butcher and not the baker wins. 4 servings...

Sarma are commonly translated as Serbian cabbage rolls, but can be found everywhere in the Yugoslavian successor states.
In contrast to the cabbage rolls with fresh white cabbage that are common in Germany, these are made with sauerkraut. The whole cabbage heads are fermented with lactic acid. There is also no need to fry the roulades because the cabbage leaves are very moist. 2 servings Ingredients:
For the Sarma:
1/2 cup (150 ml...

My teeth are slowly entering the critical phase before the prosthetics, so I can only eat soft things at the moment. Soups and porridge all the time are boring in the long run. So at the moment I'm just having chopped steak 😎 with soft-boiled vegetables and rice.
What I've been wanting to make again for a long time was my shashlik pot and this recipe at least has a hint of shashlik.
Tip: TV chef Mike Süßer gave a good tip about...

Last Saturday I saw a burger on Hessen television that was made from Hessian ingredients. Instead of the usual burger sauce, a herb cream was made from quark, the burger patty was a German meatball and the cheddar was replaced with hand cheese. As a Frankfurt boy, I then replaced the quark with Frankfurt green sauce and that's how this South Hesse burger came about. 2 portions Ingredients:
2 rolls of your choice, preferably...
