Description

This is a traditional German recipe that my oma (grandmother) passed down to my family. We make it for every Christmas Eve dinner.

Ingredients

  • Flank, or thin round steak
  • Salt & Pepper
  • 1 Tbsp finally chopped onion
  • Prepared mustard
  • Thinly sliced dill pickles
  • Strip of bacon
  • Few bay leaves

Instructions

  1. Pound the steak thin and sprinkle salt, pepper. Put 1 Tbsp of finely chopped onion, prepeared mustard, thinly sliced dill pickles, and a strip of bacon on the meat. Roll the meat and secure it with twine or string. Braise in fat until the meat is browned. Add chopped onions and brown them. Add a bay leaf or two and add hot water. Simmer for about two hours. The secret is in having the right temperature at braising. You need to get the roll browned without losing the moisture.
