Main Ingredients
- 8 thinly sliced deli-style roast beef slices
- 6 slices provolone or Swiss cheese
- 4 French bread slices or tortilla wraps
- 1 cup beef broth or prepared au jus mix
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Optional: Fresh herbs such as rosemary or thyme for garnish
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather thinly sliced roast beef, your choice of cheese slices, and bread or tortilla wraps. Have your beef broth or au jus warmed in a small bowl ready for dipping.
- Assemble the Roll Ups: Lay the bread or tortilla flat and spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard evenly over the surface. Layer the roast beef and cheese slices evenly on top. Carefully roll the bread up tightly, securing the fillings inside.
- Toast the Roll Ups: Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place the roll ups seam side down first, pressing slightly, and toast until all sides are golden and crispy and the cheese fully melts, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Heat the Dipping Sauce: Warm the beef broth or au jus in a small saucepan over low heat until hot and flavorful, ready for dipping.
- Serve Warm: Slice roll ups in halves or keep whole based on preference. Serve immediately alongside the hot au jus for dipping, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Notes
- Use thinly sliced beef for smooth rolling and tender bites.
- Do not overstuff the roll ups to avoid tearing or leakage during cooking.
- Toast over medium heat to melt cheese perfectly without burning the bread.
- Prepare homemade au jus ahead to deepen flavor while assembling.
- Wrap roll ups tightly to maintain shape during cooking and serving.
