Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and the beef. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 1.5 to 2 hours until the beef is tender.

  2. 2

    While the beef is cooking, peel and cut the potatoes into quarters. In a separate pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook for 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.

  3. 3

    In a saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and whisk continuously for about 2 minutes to create a roux.

  4. 4

    Gradually add 1 cup of the beef broth (from the pot with the beef) to the roux, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook for another 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.

  5. 5

    Stir in 1 cup of heavy cream, 1 cup of chopped fresh dill, and 2 tablespoons of white vinegar. Season with 1 teaspoon of black pepper and adjust salt to taste. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Once the beef is tender, remove it from the pot and slice it into serving pieces. Serve the beef topped with the creamy dill sauce alongside the boiled potatoes.

  7. 7

    Garnish with additional fresh dill if desired and enjoy your Koprová omáčka s hovězím masem!
