What it is
Tender chunks of beef slowly braised with a substantial amount of caramelized onions, garlic, and savory spices until the meat is falling apart and infused with deep flavor. The onions break down to form a rich, naturally thickened sauce.
Key ingredients
Beef (e.g., chuck, short ribs), onions, olive oil/fat, garlic, bay leaf, paprika, salt, pepper, beef broth (optional).
If you order it anyway
Ensure no flour or starchy thickeners are added to the sauce. Request that the dish is served without any potato, bread, or rice.
If you order it anyway, say this (Serbian)
Govedina u Luku, molim vas, bez brašna ili skroba za zgušnjavanje sosa. Poslužite bez krompira, hleba ili pirinča.
Govedina u Luku, please. No flour or starchy thickeners in the sauce. Serve without potato, bread, or rice.
Watch out for
Flour or starch used for thickening the sauce, excessive amounts of onion beyond what naturally caramelizes, served with high-carb side dishes.
