Beef roll in horseradish breading topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
Roll
- 2 red bell peppers, stemmed, halved lengthwise and seeded
- 3 tbsp. l. olive oil
- 1 leek, white and light green parts only, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 flank steak weighing 1-1.3 kg, trimmed
- 220 g of sliced provolone cheese (about 8 slices)
Breading
- 3/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 3 tsp chopped fresh rosemary
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 3 tbsp horseradish, drain the liquid
- 3 tbsp olive oil + extra for greasing
Preparation:
- Prepare the filling for the roll: Preheat the oven to broil and place the peppers cut-side down on a foil-lined baking sheet. Grill the peppers until the skins are charred, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, cover with a plate, and set aside until cool enough to handle. Peel the peppers with your fingers or a small knife. Rinse them, if necessary, to remove any remaining skin and pat dry.
- Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the leek and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in the parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Let cool.
- Gently pound the steak with the flat side of a mallet or a heavy skillet to a thickness of 0.5 cm. Place it on a cutting board with the long side facing you and season with salt and pepper. Spread the roasted peppers evenly over the entire surface of the steak, leaving a 2.5 cm gap from the edges. Top with cheese slices, then the leeks. Roll the steak away from you into a tight roll, tucking the filling inside.
- Prepare the breading: In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, rosemary, parsley, horseradish, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Brush the roll with a little olive oil and press the breadcrumbs onto the top and sides. Tie the roll with twine in three or four places, being careful not to damage the breadcrumb crust.
- Place the roulade on the rack in a roasting pan and bake until golden brown and a thermometer inserted into the center registers 130°F (55°C) for medium, about 45 minutes. Transfer the roulade to a cutting board and let rest for 15 minutes. Carefully trim the twine, then slice the roulade crosswise into 1-inch-thick slices.
