Rouladen Or Beef Roll-Ups(Serves 6 Or 8)
- 8 slices thick sliced smoky bacon
- 8 pieces round steak (6 x 4 x 1/4-inch, 3 lb.)
- 8 green onions or 2 large onions, cut in chunks
- meat tenderizer
- 1 large dill pickle (if desired)
- minced parsley
- pepper to taste
- Cut bacon strips in half.
- Saute in frypan until cooked, but not crisp.
- Remove and set aside.
- Lay steaks out on counter. Sprinkle with tenderizer.
- Turn steaks over.
- Place some onion chunks or 1 green onion, cut in half, on steak and 2 pieces of bacon.
- If you use the pickle, cut it in 8 sticks.
- Place one on each steak.
- Pepper to taste.
- Roll up and tie with string. Brown in bacon drippings.
- Add 1 can condensed beef broth or consomme and 1 can water.
- Bring to boil.
- Cover.
- Turn down heat and simmer for 1 hour.
- Check if tender.
- If not, simmer another 1/2 hour. I put mine in a Dutch oven and bake at 350u0b0 after it has been fried and the broth added.
- Takes 1 1/2 hours in oven. Remove rolls.
- Mix 2 tablespoons cornstarch in a cup of water. Then add to gravy and cook until thickened and clear.
- You can add some red wine instead of all water to cornstarch.
- Remove string before serving. You can use minute steaks for this, too.
