Cheese-stuffed beef rolls are a rich, savory dish where thin slices of beef are filled with melted cheese and often herbs or veggies, then rolled and cooked until tender. Here’s a simple, delicious way to make them:
🧀🥩 Cheese-Stuffed Beef Rolls
Ingredients:
- 500g thinly sliced beef (flank steak or round works well)
- 150g cheese (mozzarella or cheddar, cut into sticks)
- 2–3 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 small onion (finely chopped)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika or chili flakes (optional)
- 2 tbsp oil or butter
- 1 cup tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes
- Toothpicks or kitchen twine
Instructions:
1. Prepare the beef
- Lay out the beef slices and gently pound them thin if needed.
- Season both sides with salt, pepper, and paprika.
2. Add filling
- Place a piece of cheese in the center of each slice.
- Add a little garlic and onion on top.
3. Roll them up
- Roll tightly and secure with toothpicks or tie with string.
4. Sear
- Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
- Sear the rolls on all sides until browned (about 5–7 minutes).
5. Simmer
- Add tomato sauce, reduce heat, cover, and cook for 20–25 minutes until beef is tender and cheese is melted.
🍽️ Serving Ideas:
- Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or fresh naan
- Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or coriander
🔥 Tips:
- Add spinach or sautéed mushrooms inside for extra flavor
- Use smoked cheese for a deeper taste
- Don’t overfill, or the rolls may open while cooking
If you want, I can give you a quick air fryer version, a creamy sauce variation, or a desi-style spicy version 😊
