German Beef Rouladen Recipe
Tasty and tender, this dish is one of the simplest examples of this recipe I've found. The hardest thing I see is the cutting of thin slices from the flank steak - so, I used cube steaks that I flattened with a meat hammer. They turned out excellen... More

Ingredients

  • b.. German stone ground mustard, to taste

  • d.. 2 large onions, sliced
  • e.. 1 (16 ounce) jar dill pickle slices
  • f.. 2 tablespoons butter
  • g.. 2 1/2 cups water
  • h.. 1 cube beef bouillon

Directions
  1. Cut the flank steak into thin filets; about 1/4 inch thick and 3 inches wide.
  2. Generously spread one side of each filet with mustard to taste. Place bacon, onions and pickle slices on each filet and form into a roll. Use string or toothpicks to hold the roll together.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt butter. Place the rolls in the butter and sauté until browned.
  4. Pour in 2 1/2 cups of water and add the bouillon cube; stirring to dissolve the bouillon cube. Simmer the rolls for about an hour.

Wow, this sounds fantastic and would go great with your Almost Mashed Potatoes. Gave both recipes a 5 and can't wait to try both. Yummers. I like your idea of using braciole instead of fighting the slank steak. Great post.


I love rouladen. I make it very similar to this, but I used london broil that I had the butcher slice just right for me. Thanks for reminding me of this... am going to make soon.


Delish! Thanks.

I finally made this last night. It turned out that the braciole option wasn't viable because the meat was so thin it would tear easily, so I quickly ran to the store and picked up a pack of cube steaks and flattened them. I didn't have German mustard or dill pickles, so I used Dijon and bread/butter pickles. It was STILL great!! I thickened the remaining broth for gravy and would DEFINITELY make this again!!!
