This is a traditional homemade roast beef from the region Alsace in France. The dish is served together with Alsatian pasta called Spätzele. To get the meat really tender, let the meat soak in the marinade over the night before the dish will be served. The portions are usually very big in this part of the country so you will not be hungry after a dinner like this.

A classical omelet is made with only eggs. This omelet is different both by containing tomatoes, ham, onion and cheese, and for its different shape. This is a way to enhance the flavor of the actual omelet itself and not by serving the ingredients on the side. It is a good idea to serve this omelet as lunch or for a lighter dinner together with a salad on the side.

Alsatian Flammekueche
Alsatian Flammekueche
This is a traditional recipe of the famous Alsatian flammekueche also known as tarte flambée that my grand-parents used to do every Sunday. They are traditionally baked in a wood-fire oven which makes a crispy bottom with slightly burned edges with a creamy topping. But don´t worry with modern ovens they are also easy and tasty to prepare. Using a wood-fire oven was part of the Sunday evening entertainment at my grand-parents.
