Ingredients
Main Ingredients
500 grams ground beef (minced beef) - preferably grass-fed for richer flavor
1 medium onion - finely chopped
2 cloves garlic - minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon oregano - dried
0.5 teaspoon paprika
1 cup breadcrumbs - preferably homemade
100 grams Parmesan cheese - grated 
2 large eggs - beaten
1 pinch salt - to taste
1 pinch ground black pepper - to taste
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat and sauté the onion until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to cook for another 2 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine the minced beef, cooked onions and garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.
- Divide the beef mixture into four portions. Flatten each portion into a rectangular shape about 1/2 inch thick.
- Roll each rectangle tightly and secure with toothpicks.
- Set up a breading station with the beaten eggs in one dish and the combined bread crumbs and Parmesan in another dish.
- Dip each beef roll first in the egg and then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring each roll is well covered.
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Heat a large frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat and sear the rolls on all sides until golden brown, about 8 minutes total.
- Transfer the seared rolls to a baking tray and bake in the oven for 10 minutes, or until cooked through.
Notes
For an added zing, try adding a spoonful of chimichurri sauce inside each roll before breading. For a gluten-free option, substitute the bread crumbs with finely ground almonds.
