Zwiebelrostbraten was a fried roast beef with roasted onions, being a traditional dish of Swabian and Austrian cuisine as well as part of the usual menus in Viennese restaurants.
Elsa Schneider's grandmother used to cook a nice Zwiebelrostbraten for dinner if not a little Schwammerin Gebacken, as her granddaughter recalled to American archaeologist Indiana Jones as they prepared to break into Castle Grunwald in 1938.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
The mention of Zwiebelrostbraten was originally part of the third revision of Jeffrey Boam's script for Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.[1] Although Tom Stoppard retained many of Boam's ideas in the final script, the mention of Zwiebelrostbraten didn't make it into the shooting script.[2]
