Note

Storage: Leftover roulades can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a covered dish with a splash of broth or water to prevent drying out.

Substitutions: If asparagus is out of season, you can substitute with blanched green beans, spinach, or zucchini ribbons. For the sauce, vegetable broth can be used instead of chicken broth for a vegetarian version.

Tips: When rolling the roulades, ensure the plastic wrap is tight to help them maintain their shape during steaming. Use kitchen twine if plastic wrap is not preferred, but plastic wrap helps steam the turkey gently without drying it.

Variations: Add a slice of provolone or mozzarella cheese inside the roll for a richer flavor. You can also add a teaspoon of Dijon mustard to the sauce for extra tang.
