Ingredients
  

  • 4 large flour tortillas 12 inch
  • 4 slices provolone cheese thin deli slices
  • 12 oz deli sliced roast beef generous amount
  • 1 cup French fried onions
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil extra virgin, for brushing
  • 1 can beef consommé 10.5 oz
  • 1 cup water equal amount to consommé
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce low sodium
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Equipment

  • Rimmed baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • Pastry brush
  • small saucepan
  • sharp knife

Method
 

  1. Set your oven to 425°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Lay each tortilla flat on your work surface. Place a slice of provolone on one half and top with a generous handful of roast beef plus a layer of French fried onions.
  3. Roll up tightly with the fillings tucked in. Brush the inside edge with a little olive oil before sealing the roll so it stays closed in the oven.
  4. Set all four rolls seam side down on your baking sheet. Brush the tops and sides with olive oil so they turn golden and crisp as they bake.
  5. Put the tray in the oven and bake for around 10 minutes but check at 8. The tortillas should be lightly browned and the cheese just bubbling out at the edges.
  6. While the rolls bake, combine your beef consommé, water, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, onion powder, and garlic powder in a small saucepan. Bring this to a gentle simmer on the stove, whisking to blend.
  7. Allow the rolls to rest for a couple of minutes before using a sharp knife to cut them into halves or thirds. Arrange them on a platter with a bowl of hot au jus for dunking.

Notes

Choose large 12 inch tortillas that are fresh and flexible. Brush inside edge with olive oil before sealing. Check at 8 minutes for best results. Keep au jus hot for serving.
