Ingredients
 

For the cherries

  • Salt
  • Black pepper from the mill
  • Olive oil
  • 1 middle Onion
  • 1 Clove of garlic
  • 1 branch Thyme
  • 1 branch Rosemary
  • 200 ml Broth
  • 100 ml Cherry juice
  • 100 g Sour cherries from the glass
  • 1 tbsp Clarified butter
  • 1 tsp Thyme
  • Salt
  • Black pepper from the mill
  • 3 tbsp Gravy
  • 2 tbsp Cherry juice

Instructions
 

  • Wash the cheeks and pat dry, pepper and salt on all sides. Unfortunately the butcher cut it in half when it was boned, but that doesn't matter.
  • In a casserole, fry the cheeks vigorously on all sides in olive oil over high heat until they take off color. Then remove the cheek.
  • Fry the chopped onion in the remaining oil, then add the chopped garlic.
  • Deglaze with the stock and cherry juice.
  • Put all the spices in the pot and place the beef cheek on top.
  • Simmer on a low flame for about 3 hours. Turn the cheek in the gravy 1-2 times in between.
  • Sear the cherries in clarified butter 15 minutes before the end of braising. Then add the roast and cherry juice and the spices.
  • Approx. Let simmer for 5 minutes and reduce the juice.
  • Serve the cheeks and the cherries.
  • Tagliatelle and e.g. caramel Brussels sprouts go well with this, see my KB.
