Horseradish Pork Rolls – Authentic German Dish

If you don’t know what to cook for the holidays, or if you want to cook something special, why don’t you try this recipe? In German we call them “Meerrettich Rouladen”; you probably know the famous beef Rouladen, these ones are made with pork instead of beef. For the meat you would use very thin and sliced pork filet. Potatoes as a side dish are recommended but you can also enjoy them with pasta or  “Bratkartoffeln”. Happy Cooking!
