Ingredients

4 slices beef schnitzel
4 slices prosciutto (you can use bacon or ham, too)
1 onion, small and finely chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
2 gherkins, finely chopped
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 cup flour, plain
1 onion, finely chopped
3/4 cup water
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon flour, plain
1/2 cup red wine

Directions

1

Roll out the schnitzel or pound gently with tenderiser. Spread a thin layer of mustard on each piece of schnitzel. Mix together the onion, garlic and gherkins and spread over the mustard. Then layer a piece of proscuitto on to each piece of schnitzel.
2

Roll meat up and tie together with string or use tooth picks to hold together. String works best, but toothpicks will suffice.
3

Toss each beef parcel in the flour until nicely covered. Fry in hot oil until browned all over. Add the second sliced onion and 1 tbsp of flour. Let it brown then add some water, stirring to prevent lumps occurring. Add salt and pepper to taste.
4

Put lid on pot and cook slowly for 11/2 - 2 hrs (depends on the size of the Rouladen). A Dutch Oven is ideal for this.
5

Remove Rouladen, Keep warm under foil.

Add red wine to the sauce, add more salt and pepper to taste if necessary. Give it a good whisk, pour over Rouladen.
