Instructions

  1. Peel and finely dice 1 onion and add to the meat. Season with salt, pepper, marjoram and a little nutmeg and mix everything homogeneously.
  2. Slice the plums.
  3. Spread the roulades on the worktop, dab with a kitchen towel, season with salt and pepper and brush with mustard.
  4. Spread the minced meat mixture on the roulades and pour the plums on top.
  5. Roll up the meat into roulades and fix with kitchen twine or skewers.
  6. Peel the remaining onions and cut into eighths, cut the carrots into small slices and the celery into strips.
  7. Fry the roulades in a saucepan or small roaster in clarified butter, remove from the roaster.
  8. Fry the onion cubes and tomato paste in the frying fat, add the celery and carrots. After searing it briefly, deglaze with red wine, reduce a little and add the stock.
  9. Bring to the boil, put in the roulades, put the lid on and cook in the oven at 170 ° for approx. Either baste the gravy occasionally or turn the roulades from time to time.
  10. Remove the roulades and keep them warm in the switched off and open oven.
  11. Put the gravy into a saucepan through a sieve; if the liquid has not already been significantly reduced in the oven, reduce a little more. Add some of the sieved vegetables, puree the sauce with the magic wand and season with salt and pepper.
  12. Tie with a little cornstarch and stir in the crème fraîche.
  13. Serve with bread dumplings or spaetzle.
  14. One more small note:
  15. I always choose the pot in a size that just fits the roulades. This means that they are barely covered when pouring on.
  16. If the pot is a bit too big, add some water and reduce the sauce accordingly after the cooking time is over.
