Spinach Roulade Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Coat a 10-by-15-inch rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray, and line with parchment. Spray and flour parchment; shake off excess flour.
• Heat milk in a saucepan until hot but not boiling; set aside. Place flour in an airtight container with the water; shake until dissolved. Set aside. Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add flour mixture; whisking constantly, cook until roux is lightly colored, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in hot milk; cook, stirring constantly, until thick, about 3 minutes more. Remove from heat; season with 1 teaspoon salt and cayenne. Lightly beat yolks in a bowl; gradually whisk some of the hot mixture into yolks to warm them. Whisk yolk mixture back into milk; set pan aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk egg whites until foamy. Add cream of tartar; whisk until smooth, firm peaks form. Stir a quarter of the whites and half the Parmesan into milk mixture; gently fold in remaining whites. Pour mixture onto prepared baking sheet; spread to fill all corners. Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan. Bake until top is browned and puffed, about 15 minutes. Remove from oven; let cool. Carefully invert onto a parchment-lined work surface; gently remove paper from bottom; set aside.
• Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice and water; set aside. Add spinach to boiling water in bunches; cook until bright green and wilted, about 1 minute. Transfer to ice bath to stop cooking. Transfer to colander to drain; squeeze out excess water. Very finely chop spinach; set aside in a bowl.
• Coat a baking sheet that is at least 15 inches long with cooking spray; set aside. Heat remaining tablespoon butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and transfer to bowl with spinach. Add ricotta, and season with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper. Stir until well combined. Spread the filling over cooled souffle base. Using the parchment as a guide, roll souffle tightly, starting with a long side, and transfer carefully to baking sheet, seam side down. Brush with cream, and bake until filling is heated through and souffle is light golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Slice, and serve hot or at room temperature with sauce, if using.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400. Line a 10x15 baking sheet with parchment paper. Put a few dabs of butter on the pan to help anchor the paper then lightly butter and flour the paper, knocking off any extra flour.
• Separate the yolks and whites. Lightly beat the yolks and set them aside. Make a rue by melting the butter, add the flour, stirring constantly then whisk in milk. Cook another 3 minutes, remove from heat and add salt and pepper.
• Gradually whisk some of the mixture into the yolks to warm them, then return everything to the pot to finish combining.
• In a large bowl whisk or beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt (or cream of tartar) until they form smooth peaks.
• Stir about ¼ of the whites and ½ of cheese into the milk mixture, then gently fold in the rest of the whites.
• Pour soufflé mixture on the baking sheet spreading to all corners. Sprinkle to rest of the cheese over the surface. Bake until the top is nicely browned and puffed, about 15 minutes. Remove soufflé from the oven and let it cool. Turn over onto the counter and remove parchment paper. Use a tea towel under to help roll it later.
• Prepare soufflé base and set aside. Wash and cook spinach, seasoned with salt. Drain. Melt butter and cook onion. Squeeze water out of spinach and chop finely. Add to onions. Cook another few minutes.
• Thin ricotta with enough milk until soft and pliable and season with nutmeg and pepper. Preheat the oven to 400. Spread the ricotta over the soufflé and top with spinach. (This is where I plan on adding a bit more. Likely basil, gruyere cheese, sundried tomato and toasted pine nuts.).
• Roll the soufflé, short end first. Transfer to a greased baking sheet, end down to prevent unrolling. Brush the top with cream. Bake lightly covered for 25 minutes
• To serve, ladle sauce on plate and set sliced piece over sauce.

• Place chicken breasts between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a uniform thickness of 1 inch.
• Heat spinach in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
• Whisk eggs, Parmesan cheese, and milk together in a bowl.
• Stir egg mixture into the spinach; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Spread about 2 heaping tablespoonfuls of the spinach mixture onto each pounded chicken breast.
• Roll each breast into a cylinder shape, secure ends with toothpicks, and arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
• Sprinkle bread crumbs atop rolled chicken.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 45 minutes. Allow chicken to rest for several minutes before removing toothpicks and serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5 and line a Swiss roll tin (23 x 32cm) with baking paper. Cook the spinach in the microwave according to pack instructions (about 2 mins for each bag), then, when cool enough to handle, squeeze out as much juice as you can. Tip the spinach into a food processor and add the egg yolks, 1 tbsp fromage frais, plenty of seasoning and the flour. Blend until really finely chopped and well mixed.
• Whisk the egg whites until stiff, then fold into the spinach mixture. Spread in the tin and bake for 12-15 mins until firm to the touch. 3 Meanwhile, beat the rest of the fromage frais into the garlic & herb cream cheese until creamy. Put a sheet of baking paper on the work surface and dust with a little of the vegetarian parmesan.
• Turn the spinach mixture onto the work surface and carefully strip off the paper. Spread with the cheese mixture and scatter over the tomato. Roll up from the shortest end using the paper to guide you. Serve straight away

Steps:

• THE ROULADE:.

• (While it bakes, prepare the filling; instructions follow).
• Remove from oven, and turn out on a clean, dry tea towel.
• Carefully remove the wax paper, and then spread evenly with filling mixture.
• Holding teatowel with both hands, gently roll up roulade.
• Trim edges slightly for a neater appearance.
• THE FILLING:.
• Drain the tinned salmon and combine in a bowl with the mayonnaise, chives and shallots. Mix well.
• TO SERVE:
• Place roulade on a rectangular dish, decorate with fresh parsley leaves, if desired.
• Cut into thick slices and serve, or place each slice on an individual side plate and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200C). Line a 9x13-inch shallow-sided baking sheet with waxed paper to extend slightly up the sides.
• Place the spinach in a pan with just the water that clings to its leaves after washing. Cook over moderate heat until tender: 7-10 minutes. Drain.
• Put the spinach, butter, and egg yolks in a blender, and work until smooth. Transfer to a lare bowl, and season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
• In a separate bowl, shisk the egg whites until they are stiff. Fold the egg whites into the spinach mixture using a metal spoon, then pour the spinach and egg-white mixture into the prepared pan, smoothing it to the edges.
• Sprinkle 2 tbsp of the Parmesan cheese over the roulade. Bake the roulade until just firm and spongy in the center: 12-15 minutes.
• Place a piece of waxed paper large enough for the roulade next to the oven, and sprinkle it with the remaining Parmesan. Remove the waxed paper that was used to line the pan from the top.
• Place the pepper under a hot broiler, shiny side up, until the skin blisters and turns black. Allow to cool. Tear off the papery skin, and remove and discard the stalk and seeds. Cut into strips.
• Beat the cream cheese with enough milk to make it spreadable, then cover the roulade with it. Arrange the red pepper over the top in widel spaced stripes, then roll up the roulade from one of the short sides.
• Place the roulade with the seam underneath so it cannot unroll. Trim the ends, and if desired, sprinkle the top with freshly grated Parmesan.
