Ultimate recipe: how to prepare stuffed beef rolls step by step
The first thing to do is prepare the filling. For this, heat a pan with oil and sauté all the vegetables until they are tender. Once ready, add the cooked rice, eggs, cheese, and seasonings until you get a uniform filling.
For the meat, the steaks need to be seasoned and laid out on a board. Then a portion of filling is spread over one end of each steak and they are rolled up, securing them with toothpicks or kitchen twine to keep them together during cooking.
Once formed, they are browned in a pot for a few minutes to seal the meat. Then add the tomato, broth, wine, and sugar.
It is recommended to lower the heat once it starts to boil and cook over low heat for 45 minutes. It is important to remember to remove the toothpicks and twine before serving.
How stuffed beef rolls are served
