Silesian beef roulade, thinly pounded beef wrapped around bacon, pickle and onion, braised long and slow in stock. The Sunday plate of Silesia, paired with kluski śląskie and modra kapusta.

Rolada śląska traces to 19th-century Breslau (now Wrocław) and the Silesian-German bistro tradition. The recipe is essentially a Silesian rouladen, the German beef roll, with longer braising and a heavier pickle accent. The three-part plate (rolada plus kluski plus red cabbage) is the canonical Silesian Sunday lunch across Polish, German, and Czech Silesia.
