Savoury Beef Roll-ups with Creamy Eggplant & Buttery Broccoli.
It’s been unusually cold for this time of the year and when the weather turns I tend to want rib sticking food which isn’t exactly healthy. I also tend to purchase aubergine for the sake of buying them and never really know what to do with them. The aubergine always tend to be diced up into a spicy tomato sauce for pasta so I decided to try something completely different and puree them instead. Does beef and aubergine puree sound like an odd combination? Well I can tell you it most definitely goes together and it really is delicious. The best part about these roll ups…they are healthy! Well healthier than that rib sticking food I was talking about.
Aubergine can handle quite a bit of seasoning and its pretty bland without some assistance. Roast garlic and fresh mint really elevates my puree and it goes very well with the beef roll ups.
BRAISING LIQUID
Yes that right, to keep the roll ups nice and juicy I braised them in aromatic rich liquid consisting of white wine, beef stock, garlic and herbs.
