Instructions
Beef
-
Marinate the beef in soy sauce and lemon juice for at least 1 hour.
-
Place the beef on a flat surface and arrange the sausages, pickled cucumber, carrot, Emborg Shredded Mozzarella and egg on one side.
-
Roll the beef, enclosing the fillings, and tie with twine to ensure that the beef will not open up.
-
Heat the cooking oil in a pan.
-
Dredge the rolled beef in flour and fry until the colour of the outer part turns medium brown.
-
Transfer the fried rolled beef to a casserole dish then pour in the beef stock and bring it to a boil.
-
Pour in half of the soy sauce/lemon juice marinade, salt and simmer until the beef is tender (about 2 hours using an ordinary casserole dish or 30 minutes using a pressure cooker).
Bechamel Sauce
-
Create a roux in a shallow skillet by heating the Emborg Butter with flour.
-
Add the beef stock and the Emborg Full Cream Milk.
-
Add the Emborg Cooking Cream and cook until it thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
Assemble
-
Optional: Fry the simmered meat for at least 2 minutes until it is crispy on the outside.
-
Remove the strings and slice into serving-sized pieces.
-
Pour the Bechamel sauce on top of the Morcon slices then top with Emborg Shredded Cheddar. Garnish with basil if desired.
