Dutch Rollade Recipe is one of the tastiest roulade recipes. This old-fashioned piece of meat is in a completely new style. Deliciously filled with nuts, onion, and herbs. It is budget-friendly, easy to make, and foolproof. The meat is wonderfully juicy and has an irresistibly tasty flavor.
Dutch Rollade Recipe
When we were young and celebrated Christmas, there was always a rollade on the menu. Not my favorite cut of meat; often very dry. That has to be done differently, right?
Yes, it can! This stuffed roulade you make in the oven is tender, juicy, and delicious. The filling of hazelnuts and red onion with mustard honey marinade has an excellent taste with a bite. Brush the outside of the roulade with mustard and some thyme for even more flavor. This is really a top recipe. And it's easy to make. It will be in the oven within 10-15 minutes. You can even fill the roulade a day in advance, and then you only have to bake it in the oven when you're ready for dinner.
And do you want to get even more inspiration? Then look at this delicious Beef Wellington, Steak Chimichurri, or a delicious meatloaf with red currant glaze.

How to prepare Rolled Pork - Stuffed Loin Filet
You can find a printable recipe with a step-by-step description at the bottom of this blog.
- Melt butter in the pan and fry the onion and garlic. Add the hazelnuts, honey, and mustard, and sprinkle with thyme. Fry for 2 minutes. Set aside.
- Cut the roulade open (not wholly through and through) and make two notches to the side (see photo). This will give you a nice, large surface for your filling. Tip: place the meat on the twine before filling it; this way, it won't become a mess.
- Put the filling in the cavity of the roulade and press the tops closed. Tie the strings tightly so that the roulade does not open during baking. Spread the outside with the mustard and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Melt butter in the pan and fry the roulade for 5 minutes on both sides.
- Place the roulade in an oven dish and pour the melted butter that has remained in the pan (with possibly some leftover filling) over the roulade. Cover with aluminum foil and bake the roulade in a preheated oven at 350 °F (ca. 177 °C) for 45 minutes, or until the core temperature is 158 °F (ca. 70 °C). Remove from the oven, wrap the roulade in aluminum foil, and rest for 5 minutes. Then cut it into slices and serve.
If desired, sprinkle some fresh thyme leaves on the roulade for garnish.
This is super delicious with Brussels sprouts with orange glaze and pecans or red cabbage from the slow cooker. And I like to serve it with Hasselback potatoes (so tasty!).
Tips, Substitutions, and Variations
- Make a homemade roulade? Then order about 2 pounds (0.91 kg) rectangular loin fillet (beef, pork, or combined) or pork shoulder. Then cut so that you have one large rectangular piece and roll it up.
- Mini roulades? Make those from boneless pork chops. Flatten the meat with a meat tenderizer. Stuff and roll up.
- By baking the roulade before you cook it in the oven, you prevent it from drying. You also cover the Dutch rollade with aluminum foil.
- The roulade is done when the meat thermometer shows 158 °F (70 °C) in the center of the roulade (in the core). If you don't have a thermometer, you can poke a hole in the middle with a skewer (about halfway). Then, gently press the roulade until some moisture comes out. If this is clear, the rollade is ready.
- Fill the meat a day in advance. Tie it with twine and roll it tightly in plastic wrap to keep it in shape. The next day you remove the foil, and you can immediately bake it from the fridge.
