"The bat's steak has nothing to do with the flutterfly, but sits on the castle bone in the pelvis of a cow. It owes its name to its shape. Americans also say 'spider steak' because of the grain," explains chef Lucki Maurer.

Ingredients

Servings: 4
  • 6-8 Bat steaks (approx. 800 g; tiled beef)
  • 600 g Sweet potatoes
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 7-10 Tbsp Sugar
  • 500 g Whipped cream
  • 2 TABLESPOONS Oil
  • 2 TABLESPOONS Butter
  • 4 TABLESPOONS Schmand
  • 7-10 Tbsp Aluminium foil

Directions

  1. 1

    Take steaks out of the refrigerator about 30 minutes before processing. In the meantime, peel and wash the sweet potatoes and cut them into cubes of about 1 cm. Mix with 1 teaspoon of salt and sugar each and leave to stand for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cut the fat off the steaks. Dab the steaks dry and rub them all around with 1 teaspoon each of salt and sugar. Let the meat rest for about 10 minutes. Put spiced sweet potato cubes and cream in a pot, bring to the boil and cook over medium heat for 15-20 minutes until tender, stirring occasionally.

  3. 3

    Heat the oil in a large frying pan bit by bit. Fry the steaks in it in portions on each side for about 2 minutes. Take them out and let them rest wrapped in aluminium foil. Add butter to the sweet potatoes and mash everything in the cream to form a puree. Season to taste with salt. Arrange meat and puree with 1 tablespoon of sour cream each on plates.

  4. 4

    Boil in hot water any leftover meat and vegetables that have to be removed and left lying around. This creates a wonderful broth, which only needs to be salted.
