Ingredients

  • 8 oz Corned Beef (Savory protein; substitute with roasted mushrooms or tempeh for a vegetarian option.)
  • 4 slices Swiss Cheese (Can be swapped for Gouda, Monterey Jack, or cheddar.)
  • 1 cup Sauerkraut (Adds tanginess.)
  • 2 large Eggs (Acts as a binder.)
  • 2 tbsp Mustard (Ensure to choose a gluten-free variety if needed.)
  • 1 cup Pickles (Add a nice crunch; consider dill pickles for a zesty kick.)
  • 1 jalapeño (Spice things up for those who love heat.)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the roll-ups until crispy.
  2. Step 2: Lay out the corned beef, Swiss cheese slices, and sauerkraut on a clean, flat surface for easy assembly.
  3. Step 3: Place one slice of Swiss cheese on top of a portion of corned beef, add a spoonful of sauerkraut, then carefully roll the mixture tightly. Secure each roll with a toothpick to keep it together.
  4. Step 4: Beat the eggs in a bowl, then dip each roll-up into the egg mixture to coat thoroughly.
  5. Step 5: Arrange the egg-coated roll-ups on a baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
  6. Step 6: For a quicker and extra crispy option, air fry the roll-ups at 375°F for 8-10 minutes instead of baking.

Tips & Variations

  • Try swapping Swiss cheese for your favorite melting cheese like Gouda or cheddar to customize the flavor.
  • Use roasted mushrooms or tempeh as a vegetarian alternative to corned beef.
  • Add chopped jalapeño inside the roll-ups for a spicy kick or serve on the side for dipping.
  • Use gluten-free mustard to keep this recipe suitable for gluten-sensitive diets.

Storage

Store leftover roll-ups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the oven or air fryer at 350°F for 5-7 minutes to regain their crispiness. Avoid microwaving as it can make them soggy.

How to Serve

Several fried rolls are stacked on a wooden board. Each roll has a golden brown crispy outer layer with a slightly wrinkled texture. Inside, there are two visible layers: a creamy melted cheese layer that is light yellow and smooth, and a pinkish-red finely chopped meat layer mixed with the cheese. The rolls are cut to show the filled cross-section, with the filling slightly oozing out. The background is softly blurred. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7
