🥗Healthier: grape juice

Grape juice offers a non-alcoholic alternative, while white wine can be cheaper.

Start by sautéing onions, carrots, and parsnips until they become translucent.

Add salt, bay leaves, marjoram, and paprika to the sautéed vegetables and cook for a few minutes.

Stir in a couple of spoons of tomato paste to the mixture.

Pour in red wine and stock, and cook to reduce the sauce, enhancing the flavors.

Pound out the flank steak to an even thickness.

Spread mustard over the flank steak.

Place pickles, carrots, and bacon on top of the mustard.

Roll the steak tightly like a jelly roll, ensuring it is well packed.

Place the rolled beef in a baking dish without needing to secure it with twine or toothpicks.

Cover the dish and bake in the oven at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for about 2 to 3 hours.

After baking, remove the rouladen from the oven and check the sauce's consistency.

Mix a bit of flour with the sauce to thicken it slightly, but keep it a natural sauce.

Serve the rouladen with dal or any preferred side dish.
