Categories     main-dish

Time 2h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/2 cup dried Italian-style bread crumbs
1 garlic clove, minced
2/3 cup grated Pecorino Romano
1/3 cup grated provolone
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
4 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (1 1/2-pound) flank steak
1 cup dry white wine
3 1/4 cups Simple Tomato Sauce, recipe follows, or store-bought marinara sauce
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
2 (32-ounce) cans crushed tomatoes
4 to 6 basil leaves
2 dried bay leaves
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, optional

Steps:

  • Stir the first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl to blend. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the oil. Season mixture with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Lay the flank steak flat on the work surface. Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture evenly over the steak to cover the top evenly. Starting at 1 short end, roll up the steak as for a jelly roll to enclose the filling completely. Using butcher's twine, tie the steak roll to secure. Sprinkle the braciole with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in a heavy large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the braciole and cook until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes. Add the wine to the pan and bring to a boil. Stir in the marinara sauce. Cover partially with foil and bake until the meat is almost tender, turning the braciole and basting with the sauce every 30 minutes. After 1 hour, uncover and continue baking until the meat is tender, about 30 minutes longer. The total cooking time should be about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Remove the braciole from the sauce. Using a large sharp knife, cut the braciole crosswise and diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Transfer the slices to plates. Spoon the sauce over and serve.
  • In a large casserole pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes. Add celery and carrot and season with salt and pepper. Saute until all the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, basil, and bay leaves and reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer for 1 hour or until thick. Remove bay leaves and taste for seasoning. If sauce tastes too acidic, add unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, to round out the flavor.
  • Pour half the tomato sauce into the bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth. Continue with remaining tomato sauce.
  • If not using all the sauce, allow it to cool completely and then pour 1 to 2 cup portions into plastic freezer bags. Freeze for up to 6 months.

Provided by Matthew Johnson

Categories     Dinner

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

½ cup bread crumbs
1 cup shredded pecorino romano cheese, plus more for serving
½ cup fresh basil, chopped
⅓ cup shredded provolone cheese
½ cup fresh italian parsley, chopped
8 cloves garlic, minced, divided
kosher salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
¼ cup olive oil
1 lb flank steak
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 medium carrot, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 cup dry white wine
28 oz crushed tomato, 1 can
2 dried bay leaves
1 tablespoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 lb orecchiette pasta, or polenta, cooked, for serving, optional
¼ cup fresh basil, cut into ribbons, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the bread crumbs, pecorino Romano, ½ cup (20 g) chopped basil, provolone, parsley, 5 minced cloves of garlic, salt, pepper, and the olive oil. Stir and set aside.
  • Lay the flank steak on a cutting board. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Cover the the meat with a sheet of parchment paper. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, pound the steak until it's ¼ inch (6 mm) thick.
  • Remove the parchment and sprinkle the bread crumb mixture evenly over the steak.
  • Starting from the bottom, roll the meat into a log. Using butcher's twine, tie up the roll so it holds its shape while cooking. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the steak roll and, without moving it, cook until a dark brown crust forms on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn the roll and repeat until all sides and the ends have been seared. Remove the roll from the pan and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Add the butter, carrot, onion, celery, remaining 3 cloves of garlic, salt, and pepper to the pan and cook until caramelized, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the white wine and stir to loosen any brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Cook until the wine reduces and the pan is slightly dry again.
  • Add the tomatoes, bay leaves, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Stir to combine.
  • Return the beef roll to the pot. Cover and bake for 1 hour, flipping the roll halfway through (if the sauce is drying up too much, add more crushed tomatoes or water), until the beef is tender.
  • Slice the braciole and arrange on a serving platter with the sauce. Serve the braciole with orecchiette or polenta. Garnish with grated pecorino Romano and fresh basil.
  • Enjoy!

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb boneless beef round steak, 4 thin slices
3 garlic cloves ( 1 finely chopped, 2 lightly crushed)
2 teaspoons freshly grated pecorino romano cheese
2 tablespoons fresh flat leaf parsley, chopped
salt
pepper, freshly ground
4 slices prosciutto ( thin slices)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup dry red wine
4 (14 ounce) cans tomato puree or 4 (14 ounce) cans canned Italian tomatoes, passed through a food mill
4 fresh basil leaves, torn into small pieces
1 lb ziti pasta or 1 lb penne pasta, cooked

Steps:

  • Place beef between two pieces of plastic wrap. Pound gently with a meat pounder or mallet to 1/4-1/8 inch thickness. Remove and discard plastic wrap. Place one slice of the prosciutto on each beef slice. Sprinkle beef slices with the finely chopped garlic, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Roll each of the beef slices into a tight roll and secure with a toothpick. Heat the olive oil in a large pot. Add the braciole and crushed garlic. Cook, turning the meat occasionally, until it is browned on all sides and the garlic is golden. Add the red wine and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove and discard the crushed garlic cloves. Stir in the tomato puree and basil. Cover and cook on low heat, turning the meat occasionally, until it is tender when pierced with a fork, about 2 hours. Add a little water if the sauce becomes to thick. If you want to serve it the Italian way: Serve the sauce over the hot, cooked ziti as a first course, followed by the braciole. Don't forget to remove the toothpick from the braciole.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Flank steak or skirt steak are great options for braciole, as they are thin and can be easily rolled up. You could also use round steak, but it is recommended to pound it thin before rolling.
  • Don't overstuff the braciole: If you stuff the braciole too tightly, it will be difficult to roll up and may burst open during cooking. It is also important to leave some space at the ends of the braciole so that the filling doesn't spill out.
  • Use a variety of fillings: Braciole is a versatile dish that can be filled with a variety of ingredients. Some popular fillings include bread crumbs, cheese, herbs, and vegetables. You can also add a bit of cooked meat or sausage to the filling for extra flavor.
  • Brown the braciole before simmering: Browning the braciole before simmering helps to develop flavor and also helps to keep the filling from falling out. You can brown the braciole in a skillet or in the oven.
  • Simmer the braciole in a flavorful sauce: The sauce is an important part of braciole, as it adds flavor and moisture to the dish. You can use a variety of sauces for braciole, but a simple tomato sauce is a classic choice.

Conclusion:

Braciole is a delicious and versatile dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make braciole at home. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting dish to try, give braciole a try. You won't be disappointed!
