Here’s a simple and delicious recipe for a meat and cheese roulade (Roulé viande fromage), oven-baked or made in an air fryer, perfect for a gluten-free, quick, and indulgent dinner:
Roulé Viande Fromage – Easy, Quick, Gluten-Free
Ingredients (4 servings)
- 500 g ground beef or turkey
- 100 g grated cheese (mozzarella, cheddar, or your choice)
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp gluten-free breadcrumbs (optional, for binding)
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp herbs (thyme, oregano, or parsley)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
1. Preheat
- Oven: 180°C (350°F)
- Air fryer: 180°C (360°F)
2. Prepare the Meat Mixture
- In a large bowl, combine ground meat, chopped onion, garlic, egg, herbs, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Mix until well incorporated.
3. Assemble the Roulade
- Lay a sheet of parchment paper or a silicone mat on a flat surface.
- Spread the meat mixture into a rectangle about 1–1.5 cm thick.
- Sprinkle the grated cheese evenly on top.
- Carefully roll the meat like a Swiss roll using the parchment paper to help shape it.
- Seal the edges slightly to keep the cheese inside.
4. Cook
- Oven: Place the roulade on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake for 25–30 minutes until meat is cooked through and cheese is melted.

5. Serve

- Optional: serve with a salad, roasted vegetables, or mashed potatoes
Tips
- For extra flavor, add sun-dried tomatoes or spinach inside before rolling.
