Beef Rollmops Recipes

ROLLMOPS

Steps:

• Place the salt and water into a 4-quart container and stir until the salt has dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the trout filets, making sure they are submerged. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Combine water, vinegar, sugar, cloves, allspice, peppercorns, bay leaves, and red pepper flake in a 2-quart saucepan set over medium high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid comes to a boil, approximately 5 minutes. Cool to room temperature and then refrigerate overnight.
• Remove the trout from the brine and rinse thoroughly under cold running water for 1 minute. Submerge the filets in clean cold water and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Drain and rinse the filets. Pat dry. Lay the filets in a single layer, skin side down and brush each with mustard. Place a cornichon or a pickled onion on the filet. Roll up each filet and secure with 1 or 2 toothpicks. Alternate layers of rollmops and julienned onion in a glass jar or ceramic crock.
• Pour on the chilled pickling mixture, cover and refrigerate for at least 5 hours and up to 2 days. Drain and serve chilled with crusty bread.

BEEF ROLL UPS

Steps:

• Lay out the sirloin steaks, if they are a little thick, use a meat mallet and bash them a little.
• Add the seasonings, olive oil and Worcestershire sauce to the meat, (mix into the meat well on both sides) then set aside and prepare the filling.
• Cut the peppers and onion to matchstick size and set aside.
• In a pan, melt the butter then add the shallots and cook until translucent.
• Add the remaining ingredients and stir, bringing it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat a little and allow the sauce to reduce in volume to half the original amount. As this reduction takes place, you will notice the sauce becomes thicker and a little sticky. Once reduced, transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Using the same pan from the sauce, lightly saute the peppers with a drop of olive oil for 1 minute and remove from heat.
• Lay the rolls flat, then in the centre of each, place the peppers and onion, and divide the cheese between the 8 rolls. Season with salt and pepper if you wish.
• Roll them tightly then using a toothpick, secure the end so the rolls don't come apart.
• Heat a large fry pan (you don't need any oil as there is oil on the meat already), and when hot enough, place the beef rolls in the pan, seam side down. As soon as they are sealed (30 - 60 seconds), turn the rolls so they cook on all sides. Medium to rare is the most popular, however, you can cook for a s long or short a time as you like.
• When done, remove from the heat, place on a plate and allow to rest for a minute or two, and remove the toothpicks.
• Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the tops as in my photos and serve! Enjoy!

BEEF ROLL-UPS

Steps:

• In the same large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter. Add roll-ups, and cook until browned on all sides, about 4 minutes. Transfer roll-ups to a baking dish just large enough to hold them in a single layer.
• In a small saucepan, heat remaining tablespoon butter and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic and sliced onions. Cook until onions are translucent, about 2 minutes.

• For the braised beef: Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Then add the beef shanks, browning deeply on each side, about 5 minutes per side. Set aside.

Return the beef to the pot, add enough water to cover and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook gently until tender when pierced with a fork, about 2 hours.
• Shred the beef with forks and set aside. Reserve 6 tablespoons of the braising liquid and mix with the hoisin sauce in a small bowl until smooth.
• For the wraps: Combine the flour, water and oil and knead until smooth and pliable, about 5 minutes; the dough should be slightly tacky. Cover with plastic wrap and rest for 10 to 15 minutes. The resting is important, don't skip it!
• Roll the dough out into a 10-by-14-inch rectangle and then roll into a log. Cut into 6 pieces. On a lightly floured surface, press down on your small piece of dough and roll into a circle, about 1/4-inch thick. Let rest for 10 minutes.
• Stretch each circle out until you can see light coming through the dough. Set aside with a damp cloth on top. When ready to use, heat up a little oil on a griddle or large saute pan over medium- high heat; the pan should be hot but not smoking. Place the wrap in the pan and cook until golden brown on one side. Then flip and cook until just cooked on the other side. Repeat with the remaining wraps.
• To assemble: Brush 1 tablespoon of the hoisin sauce evenly onto the less cooked side of the wrap. Evenly layer the beef onto the wrap. Add the cilantro, cucumber and scallions. Roll up, slice and enjoy!
