    Preparation Steps

    1

    Lay out the beef slices and thinly spread mustard on each. Season with salt and pepper.

    2

    Place a strip of bacon, chopped onion, and pickled gherkin on each slice. Roll them up tightly and secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine.

    3

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the rolls on all sides until golden brown.

    4

    Add the beef broth and red wine to the skillet. Cover and simmer over low heat for 1.5-2 hours, or until the meat is tender.

    5

    When done, remove the rolls from the skillet. For the sauce, whisk flour with a little water to form a slurry, then add it to the juices in the skillet. Simmer until thickened.

    6

    Serve the rolls hot, smothered in the thick sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
