Katův šleh

Katův šleh (literally executioner’s whipping) is a Czech dish being served in many conventional restaurants. It is a low-cost meal which can be easily and quickly prepared. It is made in many variants, however, the necessary attribute is a strong pungency or piquancy and the presence of pork or chicken meat cut into thin strips (referred to as “noodles” in Czech).

Preparation
Meat is fried in a pan and later is steamed with ingredients. The dish can be served with rice, cooked potatoes or French fries.

Naming
