This delectable Rolade of Beef and Chicken combines the savory richness of beef with the tender succulence of chicken, all wrapped in a delicate egg crepe. Perfect for a hearty meal, this dish is a fantastic option for gatherings or a comforting family dinner. Here’s how to prepare it:

Ingredients

• 300 grams of beef
• 200 grams of chicken
• 8 cloves of garlic
• 1/2 onion (medium-sized)
• 1/4 large red onion or 3 small red onions
• 5 tablespoons of breadcrumbs
• 3-4 teaspoons of salt
• 2 teaspoons of ground black pepper
• Aluminum foil for steaming

For the Egg Crepe Layer:

• 2 eggs
• 30 ml of milk (optional; can be omitted for a lighter option)
• A pinch of salt

Instructions

1. Prepare the Meat Mixture:

   • Begin by grinding the beef and chicken together. If you don’t have a grinder, you can use a food processor to achieve a similar result.
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef and chicken with minced garlic, finely chopped onion, and red onion. Mix until well incorporated.
   • Add the breadcrumbs, salt, and ground black pepper to the meat mixture. Knead the mixture until it’s well blended and slightly sticky.

2. Prepare the Egg Crepe:

   • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk (if using), and a pinch of salt until the mixture is smooth.
   • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour a small amount of the egg mixture into the pan, swirling it around to form a thin crepe. Cook until the edges start to lift, then flip and cook the other side briefly. Repeat until you have a couple of egg crepes. Set aside to cool.

3. Assemble the Rolade:

   • Place one of the egg crepes on a flat surface. Spread the meat mixture evenly over the crepe.
   • Carefully roll the crepe with the meat mixture inside, using the edge of the crepe to help form a tight roll.
   • Wrap the rolled mixture tightly in aluminum foil, making sure to seal the ends. This will help maintain its shape while cooking.

4. Steam the Rolade:

   • Preheat your steamer.
   • Place the wrapped rolade in the steamer basket. Steam for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the meat is fully cooked through.
   • Once done, remove the rolade from the steamer and let it cool slightly before unwrapping.

5. Serve:

   • Once cooled, carefully unwrap the aluminum foil and slice the rolade into pieces.
   • Serve warm as a main dish, accompanied by your favorite sides or a fresh salad.

This Rolade of Beef and Chicken offers a delightful mix of flavors and textures, perfect for any meal. Enjoy the blend of juicy meats and savory egg crepe in every bite!
