How to Make French Dip Tortilla Roll Ups
Step 1: Prep the Tortillas
Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. If they feel stiff, warm them briefly in the microwave (10–15 seconds) so they’re easy to roll without cracking.
Step 2: Add the Filling
Evenly layer roast beef across each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle shredded provolone or mozzarella evenly over the beef.
Step 3: Roll Them Up
Starting from one end, tightly roll each tortilla into a log. Make sure they’re snug so the filling stays inside when slicing.
Step 4: Cook Until Golden
You have a few options here:
Skillet Method (Best for Crispiness):
Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it. Place roll ups seam-side down and cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Oven Method:
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Place roll ups seam-side down on a baking sheet, brush lightly with butter, and bake for 12–15 minutes until golden.
Air Fryer Method:
Air fry at 375°F for 6–8 minutes, turning once.
Step 5: Slice & Serve
Let roll ups cool slightly, then slice into 1–1½-inch pieces. Serve warm with a bowl of au jus for dipping.
