Rindsroulade
Thin cut round steak (milanese cut)
Sliced onions cut in wedges
Dill pickle cut in slices the long way
raw bacon
salt and pepper to taste
toothpicks
Flour to roll meat in before browning in hot oil
Salt and pepper meat on side being rolled up
Piece of bacon, onion wedge slices, dill pickle slice
Roll like a jelly roll from bottom up
Secure with toothpick to fasten
Roll in flour to coat
Heat fat/ oil in pan and brown roulade well on all sides
In pressure cooker cook about 20 minutes. I add beef stock enough to cover rouladen and a little bit of V-8 for color.
In pan where you browned the rouladen add Tbsp flour and stir well. Add remainder of onion until glassy. Add boiling water and slowly stir well with fork to dissolve crust on bottom of pan and to prevent lumps. Cover pan. Simmer slowly for 1 hour. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Serving size: 1 roulade per person

That looks like it should be in a cookbook I bought last year, Oma. It is titled "Was Gibts Zum Essen". I have done a few of the recipes in the book, even some my wife has never tasted. I was talking with a German fellow at the nursing home last week though and he told me I should make wienerschnitzel. I have never had it as far as I know, but I an willing to try it. I did make some sauerbraten and I thought that was pretty good.
Your cookbook sounds great Randy. I just love german food. That was all mom would cook for us. Weinerschnitzel is a thinly breaded milanese cut pork steak that is fried or baked. It can be served with fried potatoes, sweet and sour red cabbage and green beans.

That does sound really good. I bought that cookbook a bit over a year ago with the purpose of assisting my wife in carrying on some of the tradition of her family. I am actually a more adventuresome cook than she is, so I figure I can introduce the family to some things that she does not ordinarily prepare. The cookbook was a fundraiser and all the recipes were submitted by German people, I believe. There are some recipes in there though that are not German, but that doesn't matter. I think it is probably time that I try a new one (recipe) so I'll have to get in the book and see what the offerings are again.
Randy is the cookbook written in German or English? Sounds like a great find.

It is written in English. I will be happy to supply you with ordering information, if you like. I am also sure they will have them available when the "Donauschwaben" have their annual meeting south of us also.
I'd love that Randy! You are the best!

Edda, there is ordering information in the back of the book. I will make a copy of the page and send it to you. But I will need you to PM you mailing information to me.
Sent you my addy in a PM. Thanks for doing this for me Randy.

Yes, I got it and also asked another question. But I would probably send you that DVD even if you didn't ask for it. One of my wife's cousins made a video of her Aunt Catherine making 'pulled strudel' and I have made DVD's of that session. Aunt Catherine does a lot of cooking for the German club (The Liederkranz) in Mansfield, Ohio.
Wow that would ne wonderful. I just love strufdel and have always wanted to make some yet didn't know what it entailed. So your wife is German too?

She is 100% German. I only have a smattering of German in my ancestry. You will appreciate the DVD then as it is made for teaching. Too many skills die with the Oma's and this is one way to keep them alive.
That is so true! I appreciate you sharing.
