Servings: 4
  • 1 collar Soup Greens
  • 1 Onion
  • 1-2 Bay leaves
  • 2 Cloves
  • 10 Peppercorns
  • 1 kg cured brisket of beef (boneless)
  • 750 g Turnip

  • 30 g Butter or margarine
  • 30 g Flour
  • 1/4 l Milk
  • 1 collar Chives
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 7-10 Tbsp white pepper
  • 7-10 Tbsp Parsley

Directions

  1. 1

    Clean, wash and roughly cut the soup greens into pieces. Peel onion. Put the soup greens, onion, bay leaf, cloves and peppercorns in a pot with 2-3 litres of water and bring to the boil. Put the meat into it and simmer covered over medium heat for 21/2 - 3 hours.

  2. 2

    In the meantime clean and wash turnips and carrots. Dice the turnip and cut the carrots into slices. 20 minutes before the end of the cooking time, remove 1/2 litre of the meat stock. Bring the broth to the boil and cook the vegetables in it for 15-20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Drain and collect the broth. Heat the fat in a saucepan and sauté the flour in it. Add milk and 1/4 litre of the broth. Simmer for about 5 minutes while stirring. Wash the chives, dab dry and cut into small rolls.

  4. 4

    Add the vegetables to the sauce and season with salt and pepper. Remove meat from the stock, cut into slices and arrange on a plate with the vegetables. Serve garnished with parsley.
