Instructions
Prepare and Fill the Beef
Lay pounded beef steaks flat on a cutting board and spread a thin layer of mustard on each. Place one slice of Swiss cheese and one pickle spear at one end of each steak.
Roll and Secure
Roll each steak tightly around the filling from the filled end to the other end like a burrito. Secure each roll with toothpicks or kitchen twine at two points to prevent unrolling during cooking.
Brown the Rolls
Melt butter in a Dutch oven or deep skillet over medium high heat. Brown rouladen rolls on all sides about 6 minutes total until nicely seared, turning gently with tongs.
Braise Until Tender
Pour beef broth and tomato paste around the browned rolls and bring to a simmer. Cover tightly and cook over low heat for 35 minutes until beef is fork tender, turning once halfway through.
