Traditional Allgäuer Zwiebelrostbraten

Zwiebelrostbraten is one of the most significant German dishes. Fresh fried onions along with steak and Cheese Spätzle go incredibly well together and satisfy the most demanding taste buds! I would encourage you to make also the side dishes from scratch because those make the dish!
