Serving: 4
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 6 hours

Ingredients

• 4 or more pieces of chuck steak or rump steak (I used rump steak)

• 1 small onion

• 3 cloves of garlic

• 1 tub of cream cheese

• 1 small bag of spinach

• 1 cup of water

• 2 teaspoons of beef stock powder

For the Mushroom Sauce:

• Olive oil

• 4 big open mushrooms, cut in half then sliced

• 300 ml thickened cream

• Salt & pepper to taste

• Parsley

Beef Roulades with Mushroom: Directions

1. Turn the slow cooker on warm.

2. Peel the onion and cut it in half. Put it in the freezer for 10 minutes. I do this so I don’t cry. Onions can be very strong.

3. Pound the meat flat so it’s all the same size, about 1 cm (1/2 inch) thick.

4. Chop the garlic very fine. I usually grate the garlic, but this time I chopped it into tiny bits.

5. Take the onion from the freezer and chop it into small pieces.

6. Put the onion and garlic on the meat. Add salt and pepper to taste.

7. Add the cream cheese and spinach on top.

8. Roll up the meat, starting from the skinny end. I tied mine with cooking string and wrapped it in aluminum foil. This keeps the juices in and stops the cheese from leaking out.

9. Put the rolled meat in the slow cooker.

10. Measure 1 cup of water in a jug. Stir in the beef stock powder.

11. Pour the stock water over the meat.

12. Put the lid on tight.

13. Cook on low for 6 hours.

Mushroom Sauce

1. Heat olive oil (or butter) in a medium pan over medium-high heat.

2. Add sliced mushrooms and stir until lightly brown. Turn heat to medium.

3. Pour in cream, salt, and pepper. Let it boil. Cook 5-8 minutes, stirring now and then. Watch so the cream doesn’t bubble too much.

4. When sauce is half as thick, stir in parsley.

5. Take off heat. Spoon over your beef rolls.

Serve with fresh boiled potato wedges and steamed veggies. Drizzle mushroom sauce on the meat and veggies. Enjoy!
