The Perfect German Zwiebelrostbraten mit Bratkartoffeln Recipe

Ingredients (serves 4):

  • 4 medium-sized beef sirloins
  • 4 medium-sized onions, sliced
  • 8 slices of bacon
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and sliced
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley
  • 1 tsp paprika powder
  • 1 tsp thyme

Instructions:

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 200°C (400°F).

  2. While the oven is heating up, let's prep the Zwiebelrostbraten. Grab a large skillet and heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and stir frequently until they are soft and translucent. This should take about 10 minutes.

  3. Meanwhile, season the beef sirloins with salt and pepper. Once the onions are ready, remove them from the skillet and set aside.

  4. Place the beef sirloins in the same skillet and cook them for 2-3 minutes on each side or until browned. This will help to seal in the juices and flavor.

  5. Now, take 8 slices of bacon and wrap each beef sirloin with 2 slices of bacon. Make sure the bacon is overlapping and secure the ends of the bacon with toothpicks.

  6. Place the wrapped beef sirloins back in the skillet and add the caramelized onions on top. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the beef reaches 60°C (140°F).

  7. While the Zwiebelrostbraten is cooking, let's move on to the Bratkartoffeln. Grab another skillet and heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the sliced potatoes and stir frequently until they are browned and crispy. This should take about 10-15 minutes.

  8. Season the Bratkartoffeln with salt, pepper, paprika powder, and thyme. Make sure to mix well.

  9. Once the Zwiebelrostbraten is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the beef even more tender and flavorful.

  10. Serve the Zwiebelrostbraten with the Bratkartoffeln and sprinkle chopped parsley on top for some extra flavor and color.
