Cheesy Ground Beef Stuffed Bread Roll Recipe

I still remember the first time I made these cheesy ground beef stuffed bread rolls at home. I wanted something warm, filling, and full of flavor that everyone would enjoy
Total Time 45 minutes
Servings: 5

Ingredients
  

  • ground beef – 500 grams
  • bread rolls or dinner rolls – 8 to 10 pieces
  • onion – 1 medium finely chopped
  • garlic – 3 cloves minced
  • mozzarella cheese – 1 to 1.5 cups shredded
  • cheddar cheese – 1/2 cup shredded
  • tomato paste – 2 tablespoons
  • salt – 1 teaspoon adjust to taste
  • black pepper – 1/2 teaspoon
  • paprika – 1 teaspoon
  • olive oil – 2 tablespoons
  • butter – 2 tablespoons melted
  • parsley – 2 tablespoons chopped

Method
 

  1. I start by heating olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Then I sauté onions and garlic until they turn soft and fragrant. After that, I add ground beef and cook until it turns brown.
  2. Once the beef is cooked, I mix in tomato paste and spices. I let everything simmer so the flavors blend beautifully together. This step is important because it creates a rich and savory filling.
  3. After turning off the heat, I mix in mozzarella and cheddar cheese. The cheese melts slightly and binds the beef mixture together. I let it cool a bit so it’s easier to handle when stuffing.
  4. I carefully cut the top of each bread roll and hollow out the center. I make sure not to break the sides so they hold the filling well. This creates a perfect pocket for the cheesy beef mixture.
  5. I fill each roll generously with the beef and cheese mixture. Then I brush melted butter on top for a golden crust. Finally, I bake them until the tops turn crispy and golden brown

Notes

  • I always let the beef mixture cool slightly before stuffing so the bread doesn’t become soggy.
  • I like adding a little extra cheese on top before baking for a cheesy crust.
  • Using fresh bread rolls makes a huge difference in texture and taste.
  • I sometimes toast the hollowed bread slightly before stuffing for extra crunch.
  • I avoid overcooking the beef so it stays juicy and soft inside the roll.
