Ingredients
1 kg minced beef
1 packet onion soup mix
100 g sliced ham
100 g sliced mozzarella cheese
1 packet onion soup mix
100 g sliced ham
100 g sliced mozzarella cheese
Where to find ingredients
Look for the minced beef, sliced ham, and sliced mozzarella at the butcher’s counter, deli section, and dairy aisle of your local supermarket. The onion soup mix is usually sold in the seasoning or soup aisle; if unavailable, a similar savoury onion seasoning mix can be used as a substitute.
Preparation method
- In a bowl, mix the minced beef with the onion soup mix until you have a smooth, even mixture
- Line a surface with aluminium foil and spread the minced beef over it, shaping it into a rectangle with the thickness you want
- Arrange the slices of ham and mozzarella cheese over the beef, leaving a small border around the edges
- Carefully, using the foil to help you, roll the beef up like a roulade
- Seal the ends of the roulade well so the cheese does not leak out during baking
- Transfer the roulade to a baking tray if you prefer, or bake it directly on the foil on a baking tray
- Place in a preheated oven and bake until the meat is cooked through and nicely browned
