Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Preheat the electric oven to 175 degrees Celsius. Peel the carrot, celery, leek, and onion, and roughly dice them. Wash the meat, pat dry, and season with salt and pepper. Tie it with kitchen string to give the roast a round shape. Heat the lard in a roasting pan and brown the meat all over. Add the vegetables and onions and fry briefly. Mix the honey with the sherry and brush the roast with it. Pour in the stock. Roast the meat in the oven for 90 minutes. Brush occasionally with the remaining honey mixture. Let the roast rest for 10 minutes. Combine the meat juices, vegetables, and cream in a saucepan. Purée, bring to a boil, season with salt, and thicken if necessary. Serve with homemade spaetzle (noodles), potato dumplings, and a carrot salad with a sauce with a hint of honey.
