Instructions

1. First the onions are finely chopped. The peppers are removed from the stem and seeds and cut into small cubes.
2. Without adding any fat, the minced meat and the chopped onions are then fried over medium heat until the minced meat turns brown. If roasting substances form at the bottom of the pot, add the diced paprika, water and ketchup. The roasted substances give the whole thing a lot of aroma and are removed from the bottom of the pot by adding the liquid. The whole thing should then simmer without a lid until the liquid has reduced significantly. Now the mixture is seasoned with vinegar, pepper and salt. At the very end, the mustard is stirred in.
3. The minced meat sauce is served on lukewarm hamburger buns.
