  • First, with a narrow-bladed knife, we cut each tenderloin lengthwise and roundly, as if to form a sheet, with a thickness between 3 and 5 millimeters. We place each one individually on aluminum foil, cut into a piece that will allow us to form a roll and close the ends.
  • On each piece of meat, we place slices of cooked ham to seal any cuts that may have been left in the meat and through which the filling might escape. We cut the peppers into thin strips and form separated lines of each color on top of the ham slices. We peel and slice the red onion into thin feathers, peel the garlic and chop it finely, mixing it with the onion, spreading this mixture between the lines of peppers. We cover everything with the cheese of our choice. Finally, we roll it up using aluminum foil as if we were making a stuffed flank steak, and once the roll is made with the aluminum foil, we create a package with each tenderloin.
  • Now we turn to the potatoes. We wash them well and cut them lengthwise into large wedges. We brush them with a little neutral oil and season with oregano, parsley, and bay leaf. We place everything on a baking tray.
  • We can choose to cook the meat rolls on the grill or in an oven. If we decide on the grill, we should rotate the tenderloins so that the heat distributes evenly and place the potatoes on a tray, also rotating them. I opted for an electric oven (it could also be gas or wood) and proceeded as follows: I set the temperature to 180°C, with heat from above and below, cooking for about 20 to 25 minutes. We take it out of the oven, brush the potatoes with the seasoning to taste, open the aluminum foil to let the juices evaporate and brown the tenderloin, returning it to the oven, but with heat only at the top, for about 15 minutes at 210°C.
