"Lozärner Chügelipastete"
Famous and liked
The Luzerner Chügelipastete is the most famous example of local cuisine: a puff-pastry shell filled with diced veal and mushrooms in a creamy sauce.
Ingredients:
1 puff-pastry shell (450 - 500 g)
600 g veal (from the shoulder), cut into 2 - 3 cm cubes
250 g veal sausage
250 g pork sausage
400 g fresh mushrooms
150 g raisins
50 g Cognac
400 g onion, minced
80 g oil
60 g butter
3 dl red wine
8 dl demiglace sauce or veal stock
Flour, bay leaf, clove, salt, freshly ground black pepper
Preparation:
Pepper the veal cubes, coat lightly with flour and brown slightly in hot oil; add the wine and let simmer at a low temperature until it thickens, then add the demiglace sauce and the rest of the spices, cover and simmer. Marinate the raisins in Cognac.
Clean the mushrooms, add them and simmer for 20 more minutes. Add sausage and raisins. As soon as it begins to simmer again, remove from heat. Fill the warm puff-pastry shell and serve immediately.
A mixed salad is a perfect accompaniment to this dish.
