How to Make Beef Rolls Cordon Bleu
- In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground beef, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup milk, 1 egg, and 1 tsp salt.
- Gently shape the mixture into 8 thin patties (about 1/2 inch thick).
- Place 1 slice of ham (approx. 2 inches square) and 1 slice of cheese (approx. 2 inches square) in the center of each patty.
- Fold the patty over the filling, ensuring the cheese and ham are completely enclosed. Seal the edges firmly.
- In a shallow dish, whisk 2 large eggs.
- In another shallow dish, place 1 cup breadcrumbs.
- Dip each beef roll in the egg mixture, then dredge in the breadcrumbs, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Arrange the beef rolls in a greased casserole dish.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 60 minutes, or until the beef is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
- While the rolls bake, prepare the gravy: In a saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and 2 cups milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens. Stir in 1 can (10.75 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup.
- For freezer preparation (optional): Once the rolls are cooked, let them cool completely. Place them in a freezer-safe zip-top bag and freeze until needed.
- To bake from frozen: Remove the rolls from the freezer and let them defrost overnight in the refrigerator. Pour the gravy over the rolls, and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 60 minutes or until heated through and the sauce is bubbly.
- To bake from frozen without prior defrosting: Remove the rolls from the freezer and place them directly into the oven. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 60 minutes then top with gravy and bake for another 30 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
