I like it spicy – not only in the bedroom but also in the kitchen. 😉

“Räuberfleisch” (literally translates to: robber’s meat) is a delicious, spicy meat dish.

In Germany, we have a saying which can be translated as “you also eat with your eyes”.

And rarely has this been as true as with this dish. It looks great and colourful during preparation, then savoury and delicious when it goes into and comes out of the oven. 😋

And I’m sure it would also look great on the plate if Hubby was as talented at serving as he is at cooking. 😄

Okay, maybe the light wasn’t perfect, either. But don’t be fooled, it is an incredibly tasty dish and I can only recommend that you try it.

We opted for croquettes as a side dish. Boiled potatoes, pasta and rice would certainly also go well.
