This beef rouladen recipe is another great German dish that reminds me of my mom's wonderful cooking. Enjoy this unique and delicious dish!
¼ cup Dijon mustard
8 (4 ounce) pieces round steak, pounded 1/4 inch thick
½ cup minced onion
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
8 slices bacon
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 (12 ounce) can beef broth
1 ¼ cups water
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup warm water
¼ cup sour cream
Spread 1/2 tablespoon mustard over one side of each piece of steak; sprinkle onion, paprika, salt, and pepper evenly over the steaks.
Lay one slice of bacon on each piece; roll up steaks jelly roll-style and secure with toothpicks.
Heat canola oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook beef rouladen on all sides until browned. Add broth and water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer until tender, about 30 minutes.
Remove beef rouladen; strain broth mixture and return liquid to the skillet. Whisk cornstarch and 1 cup of water together until smooth; slowly pour cornstarch mixture into the skillet, stirring continually until the sauce has thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
Stir in sour cream; return rolls to the sauce and serve immediately.
