To Cook: In a heavy skillet, over medium-low heat, melt 2
tablespoons of butter and saute the onion and mushrooms until the
onion is translucent. Stir in the lemon rind, bread crumbs, parsley,
1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. When the parsley has
wilted ~ about 1 minute after you add it to the skillet - quickly
stir in the eggs to bind the mixture and remove skillet from the heat
at once. Set aside. With a rolling pin or a wooden mallet, flatten
the beef pieces until each is very thin and about twice its original
size. As you finish each piece, season it with a little salt, pepper,
and a pinch of thyme. At the widest end of each beef slice, place 1
teaspoon of bread-crumb mixture from the skillet. Roll up the meat,
sausage-shape, and secure it with a wooden toothpick through the
center. Roll each piece in flour. In a very large skillet, over
medium- high heat, melt 4 tablespoons of butter and brown the pieces
of beef. As you finish, place them in the slow-cooker. Pour the
water into the skillet; scrape up the pan juices and turn the sauce
into the cooker. Cover and cook on Low for about 5 hours. Before
serving: About half an hour before serving, mix the garlic and
mustard into the sauce around the beef; cover; turn the heat to High,
and cook for 30 minutes. If the sauce seems less flavorful than you
like, about 5 minutes before serving add a dab of prepared mustard
and a little salt. If the sauce seems thin, leave the cover off
during the second cooking period.
