Ingredients for Beef Rolls Rindsrouladen

  • Top Round Beef
  • 4 slices bacon
  • 4 scallions, chopped
  • Carrots
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • Beef Broth
  • 1 tablespoon flour (for dusting and gravy)
  • 2 tablespoons oil

How to Make Beef Rolls Rindsrouladen

  1. Prepare the filling: In a large skillet, cook 4 slices bacon, 4 chopped scallions, and 4 chopped carrots until bacon is crispy and vegetables are tender. Remove and set aside on paper towels.
  2. Prepare the beef: Gently pound 4 slices of beef (about 1/4 inch thick). Spread 1 tablespoon of mustard evenly on each slice.
  3. Assemble the rolls: Top each beef slice with 1 slice of cooked bacon, 3 chopped scallions, and 2 chopped carrots. Roll tightly and secure with toothpicks.
  4. Brown the rolls: Dust beef rolls lightly with 1 tablespoon flour, salt, and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the rolls on all sides, seam-side down first.
  5. Simmer in broth: Remove beef rolls from skillet. Add 2 cups of beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Return beef rolls to the skillet.
  6. Slow cook: Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45-50 minutes, or until beef is tender, adding more broth if needed.
  7. Make the gravy (optional): If desired, thicken the sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon flour and 1 teaspoon mustard with 1/2 cup cold beef broth until smooth. Stir into the skillet and simmer for 5 minutes, or until thickened.
  8. Finish and serve: Adjust seasoning to taste. Serve immediately. Alternatively, (see step 9)
  9. Oven method: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Transfer browned beef rolls and broth to a baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour, or until beef is tender.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
