        Flatten beef with meat mallet on both sides. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the meat
        and add raw bacon and chopped onions. If you want to add pickles add them now.
        Roll up meat and secure with toothpicks in the middle and both ends. Place oil in pan
        just covering the bottom. When hot, add meat and brown on all sides. Take meat out
        when done to a plate and remove excess oil.

        Add water if necessary to make mixture cover meat. Simmer for 1 hour. Add 1/4 cup
        sour cream and more wondra or flour to thicken as necessary. Serve


        This was a special Sunday or holiday meal growing up. My Oma and Mom made the roladen
        usually with potato balls and red cabbage. Sometimes I choose it for my birthday dinner.
        Ron and I continued making it.
