Brush the roulades with mustard and season with pepper and salt. Then fill the roulades with onions, cucumber, and bacon and roll them up. Secure the roulades with toothpicks and sear them in a pan. When the roulades are seared on all sides, remove them from the pan and sear the finely chopped onions and spring onions in the pan. Deglaze the seared vegetables with red wine and stir in a little tomato paste. Let it all reduce slightly, then return the roulades to the pan. Add the rest of the red wine, the rosemary sprig, and the bay leaves. Add about 1 liter of the stock and simmer for about 1 hour. Add the rest of the stock and season the sauce with spices and tomato paste. Cover the roulades again and simmer for about 1 hour, while cooking the potatoes. When the roulades are done, remove them from the pan, strain the sauce, and thicken with a little sauce thickener. Serve the potatoes as a side dish to the roulades.
