Cookbook:Rolitos (Gibraltarian Beef Rolls)

| Cuisine of Gibraltar

This meal is traditionally served with mashed potatoes. There is an alternative method made with a tomato sauce instead of brown gravy.

Ingredients

 * 8 slices thinly sliced veal
 * 4 slices of ham, cut in halves
 * 2 hard boiled eggs, cut into quarters
 * 8 olives (con morrones—stuffed with peppers), cut in halves
 * 1 crushed or chopped garlic clove
 * 1 chopped onion
 * 1 cup beef stock
 * Salt
 * Pepper
 * Gravy powder (as required)

Procedure

 * 1) Lay out one slice of veal on worktop; place on it half a slice of ham, quarter egg and 2 olive halves.
 * 2) Carefully roll up the veal to make a package or roll with everything inside. Use two toothpicks to hold the roll together.
 * 3) Place rolls on a plate and store in a cool place or fridge.
 * 4) Fry garlic and onions until soft.
 * 5) Add stock and two teaspoons of gravy powder and bring to boil.
 * 6) Carefully place veal rolls into the boiling mixture, being careful not to break them up.
 * 7) Lower heat and simmer until done. If sauce is too thin add gravy powder till the right consistency is achieved.
