beef roulade (filled with mustard, pickle, bacon and onions) with spinach-spaetzle

roulade:

300g beef "top round"
100g bacon
2 pickles
1 onion
mustard
bouillon
salt, pepper, paprika
some flour for roux

spaetzle:

250g creamed spinach
125g flour
1 egg
salt

beat the beef until it is very thin
flavor with salt, pepper and paprika
coat with mustard

add bacon, pickles and chopped onions

roll in the sides slightly and cover pickle/onions on the side
roll up the beef lenghtwise and fixate with toothpicks

sear the  roulades in a big pot in oil on both sides until it gets a nice colour
add bouillon(or water) until the roulades are completely covered

cook about 90 mins

if you want a sauce with a nice consistency you probably have to do a roux at the end(or use a  random sauce binder)

spaetzle:
unfreeze spinach

mix flour, spinach, salt and egg and stirr

press the dough into cooking salt water(im using a spaetzle press)

fish out the spaetzle swimming on top

and finally add some butter
