I would like to share this recipe with all of you! I hope you like it!

Belinda’s Beef Rouladen

You have to buy all ingredients in an international food store or in your food store available on international Foods aisle. Do not substitute with American ingredients! It will not taste German!

4 thin slices beef sirloin, just over 1 pound, ask the butcher to cut the meat 1/4 inch thick ( I think WM sells rouladen)
salt, pepper
4 teasp. Dijon style mustard or German mustard
4 slices bacon
1 yellow onion, cut in quaters
2 German pickle spears (international Food aisle Gundelsheim or Kuehne) cut in half
250 ml vegtable or beef broth
oil
1 Bund Suppengrün( flat leave parsly, ¼ sellerie (the round one,take the skin off, you can freez the rest and use it later for soups!, ½ carotte and 1/4 leek), cleaned
Toothpicks or kitchen twine

-Season slices of sirloin with salt and pepper
-Spread each slice of meat with mustard.
-Top seasoned and mustard-coated meat with a slice of bacon, onion and pickle spear.
-Place the bacon and pickle off center closer to 1 edge of the meat than the other. Roll the steaks around the filling and secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
-Heat a deep skillet over medium high heat. Add oil, 2 turns of the pan, then meat rolls. Cook meat 2 to 3 minutes, then give it a quarter turn. Cook meat a total of 10 to 12 minutes from all sides, add your suppengruen and let it brown a little bit!
- add your broth to cover roulade (should be covered at least ¼ liquid in the pot!
- simmer for 1 ½ hours( or untile tender), turn the roulade once in awhile and make sure you add more both or water!
- after you meat is cooked, take out rouladen put on serving plate (REMOVE YOUR TOOTHPICKS FROM THE MEAT!!!) and keep warm!
- keep your pan drippings, put trough a colander
- puree the liquid, season with salt and pepper and add a little more fresh parsley!

**It the sauce is to thin for you, you always Add flour to the butter and whisk together, cooking 2 minutes. Or you can add a little German Rouladen mix from Knorr or Maggi to your gravy! The gravy is good without the Maggi fix! If you can't find it don't worry!


Guten Appetit! :p :* :* :9

Belinda!! That 'reads' delicious!:9 I haven't made rouladen in years, maybe I should give my family a treat for Sunday dinner tomorrow. I love German food, my Dad was Air Force so many of his friends had been posted to Lahr or Baden Baden where they met, married and brought German women home. We were lucky enough to have German neighbours who were quite generous with their baking and dinners. We also had a really nice Gasthaus in town...sooooo good...ahhhh, memories of shnitzel:9 :9 :7

Take Care
