Rolladen
"This German dish has a flavor not unlike pot roast. Sometimes a thin dill pickle spear in rolled up inside. Other flavor variations include adding paprika, tomato puree, sour cream or lemon juice when you thicken the gravy. All are yummy. I suspect that after browning a crock pot would work well too."

This was a great recipe. I did add some gravy powder at the end after tasting the sauce as I think it needed a little extra, I might try beef stock instead of water next time I make it. Made and reviewed for ZWT4. -
This was a very tasty dish. I am going to try it again with some of the suggested variations. I doubled the cornstarch. We served it over Recipe #203838 . Made for ZWT4.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Hi,
I'm a California native, traveled the world with my soldier hubby, then settled here in Kentucky,the land of racing horses and Burboun whiskey.
I live alone now but my 2 DDs and 7 grandkids like just a few doors down so I always have a houseful
I love to cook. It's really ALL about the food, isn't it? These days I look for recipes that are easy to prepare and easily made in smaller amounts, although I often will make a full recipe and freeze it in portions for days when I can't cook. Both DDs are my cooking buddies. Two or three times a week they come over and help with the prep and cooking, trying out the new recipes I've found here on Zaar. They also help with the eating, as do the SILs and grandkids.
How I rate recipes:
5 Stars ~ Fabulous and I loved it just the way it is ~ Perfect.
4 Stars ~ Needs a tune up, a tweak here and there. A keeper.
3 Stars ~ A good idea that is not quite working. Repairs needed May or may not be a keeper.
2 Stars ~ This recipe would need a major overhaul to suit me. Probably will not make again.
1 Star ~ Just not my cup of tea ~ will not make again.
