Recipe (in Czech)

1) We stuff the meat with bacon fries ( it's great if we put it in the freezer for half an hour) and fry it in oil with butter (the butter won't burn).
2)Then we remove the meat and fry the roughly grated vegetables and onions. As soon as the carrots release the color, add the sugar and let it caramelize.
3)Add mustard, spices, add vinegar, add meat and pour boiling broth. Put the pot or baking tray and the lid in the oven and bake until the meat is soft (approximately 1.5-2 hours in a medium oven). Then we remove the meat and spices, cut the meat and mix the sauce.
4)If necessary, thicken the sauce with plain flour kneaded in milk and cook (flour must be cooked for at least 20 minutes), adding salt as needed.
5)Soften the sauce with cream, season with lemon and a slice of butter, which we no longer cook. Serve with bread dumplings, garnish with a piece of lemon and cranberries.
On the top we can add cranberries and lemon.
