I made this for husband,(I don't eat beef), he LOVED all the flavors. He said it reminded him of a holiday meal, thanks for sharing, chow :-)
over 11 years agoI make this for special occasions with a variation. I lay one or two strips of bacon over the dijon mustard smeared meat slice and then very generous amounts of finely diced onion. No pickle although I know it is often done this way. Roll, secure with toothpicks, sear, and braise until tender. The best veg to serve with it is sweet and sour purple cabbage. A family favourite!
