Ingredients

4 servings

  • 4 pc large beef roulades (topside or round)
  • 4 tsp mustard (medium-hot)
  • 8 slices bacon
  • 2 pc pickled gherkins (sliced into strips)
  • 1 pc onion (sliced into strips)
  • 1 bunch soup greens (finely diced)
  • 400 ml beef broth
  • 150 ml red wine (dry)
  • 1 tbsp wheat flour (for thickening)
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • salt and pepper

Method

  1. Lay the beef roulades flat on a work surface, season with salt and pepper, and spread 1 tsp of mustard onto each.
  2. Top each roulade with 2 slices of bacon, a few pickle strips, and a few onion strips.
  3. Fold in the long sides slightly, roll up the beef tightly, and secure with kitchen twine or roulade needles.
  4. Heat the vegetable oil in a Dutch oven and sear the roulades thoroughly until deeply browned all over, then remove.
  5. Sauté the diced soup greens in the remaining fat, deglaze with red wine, and pour in the beef broth.
  6. Return the roulades to the pot, cover, and simmer over low heat for 80-90 minutes, then strain the gravy and thicken it with the flour whisked into a little cold water before serving.
