Tonight, for the very first time I tried making a German dish called Rouladan. I was skeptical of how it would turn out and to be honest....kind of expecting it to fail!
Much to my very happy surprise, it turned out fantastic! I also topped this tasty dish with a personal favorite of mine, garlic mushrooms! *drool*
Anyways, without any further adew, I have some pics to post for you and a recipe! Enjoy!
GERMAN ROULADIN
1 1/2 pounds flank steak
German stone ground mustard (or I've used Dijon)
1/2 pound thick sliced bacon
2 large onions, sliced
sandwich saver dill pickles
2 tbsp butter2 1/2 cups water
1 cube beef bouillon
1. Cut the flank steak into thin fillets, about 1/4 inch thick and 3 inches wide
2. Generously spread one side of each fillet with mustard, to taste. Place bacon, onions and pickles on each fillet, and form into a roll. Use string or toothpicks to hold the rolls together.
3. Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt butter. Place the rolls in the butter and saute until browned.
4. Pour in 2 1/2 cups of water and add the bouillon cube, stirring to dissolve the cube. (I mix my beef cube with water before adding to meat...it's easier, plus, I use 2 cubes/packets/tsp)
Simmer rolls for about an hour.
I did make a few changes from the recipe above though. I used Dijon Mustard with Chardonnay, only 1 sliced onion and I used already mixed Beef Broth.
Also, if you want to add the tasty garlic mushrooms on top, all you have to do is melt some butter in a sauce pan, add some minced garlic and toss your cut up mushrooms in. Let them simmer for a bit and then add some pepper on top! Once they are done to your taste, place them on top of your Rouladan, serve and enjoy!

All in all it was a great cooking night for me! If you try the recipe, please comment and let me know how it goes!
Until next time, Ciao!
