German Beef Rouladens
I have not yet made this recipe, submitted for zwt 6. Overnight rest optional for a more flavorful meat. Cook time does not represent the overnight rest, and request mostly stove simmering.
Steps
Cut steaks into strips measuring 3 to 4 inches wide.
On a floured surface , coat steak strips with flour.
Using a meat mallet , pound meat until thin , approximately 1 / 8 inches.
Season each steak strip with salt and pepper.
Put a little chopped onion and 1 / 4 bacon slice onto the top of each steak strip.
To make roulades , roll up and tie well with butchers twine.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat , heat vegetable oil.
Add roulades and brown thoroughly on all sides.
As each roulade is browned , remove from frying pan and transfer onto a large plate.
When all roulades are browned and removed from the pan , add wine to the pan drippings and let simmer 1 minute.
In a large heavy baking pot or dutch oven , place roulades and cover with the wine mixture.
Add water to just cover the roulades.
Simmer gently 2 hours or until tender.
When done , remove from heat and let cool.
Remove strings and place back into the liquid.
At this point , refrigerate the roulades in.
