How to cook Roll in onion skins

Step 1

Roll up the roll. Roll it up so that the skin is on top. Tie it tightly with a thread. Put some onion peels on the bottom of the pan, put the roll on top. Put the remaining peels and bay leaf on top of the roll. Pour water so that it completely covers the roll. Cook on medium heat for 2-2.5 hours after boiling. Remove the roll from the pan and cool. Put it in the refrigerator for 3-5 hours.
