Steps:
- For the steak: Gently pound the steak to 1/4-inch thickness. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs, pecorino, parsley and garlic onto the meat. Drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil over the meat. Roll the meat with the grain and tie with butcher's twine to secure the roll. Sprinkle the outside of the roll generously with salt and pepper. Heat a Dutch oven over high heat, add 1/4 cup olive oil and sear the beef on all sides until golden brown. Remove the meat from the pan and set aside.
- Turn down the heat to medium and add 3 tablespoons olive oil, the onions, garlic, Italian seasoning and crushed red pepper. Sweat until translucent, about 10 minutes, stirring to avoid burning. Add the tomato paste and cook 3 more minutes. Then deglaze the pan with the wine, scraping all the fond from the bottom, and add the crushed tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and add the meat back to the pan. Simmer over low heat until the meat is tender, about 2 hours. Taste and season again with salt and pepper, if necessary. Remove the meat from the pot, cut the twine and slice against the grain into 1/4 to 1/2-inch slices. Reserve the tomato sauce.
- To assemble the sandwiches: Take a warm, buttered hero roll and place 3 slices of the braciole on the bread. Follow with a few shaving of the Parmigiano-Reggiano, some dollops of burrata, the peppadew peppers and top with the Fried Onions. Serve with a side of the tomato sauce for dipping.
- In a large pot, heat the oil to 350 degrees F. Slice the onions into thin half moons and soak in the buttermilk for 15 minutes. Drain on a rack. Season the flour with salt and pepper and then dredge the onions into the mixture. Fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
FRANKIES SPUNTINO PORK BRACIOLE
Frank Castronovo and Frank Falcinelli, who own the Frankies Spuntino restaurants in New York, prefer to keep it mellow. "I cooked on the line for 18 years," Mr. Falcinelli told The Times. Mr. Castronovo, equally low-key, said, "We like to take the easy approach." That means many of their dishes, like vegetable antipasti, grilled meats and wine-stewed prunes, are cooked well ahead and assembled to order or served at room temperature. In this version of braciola, the meat rolls are covered with canned tomatoes that become sauce as the meat cooks. "My grandfather calls it gravy," Mr. Falcinelli said. "For the Sunday sauce, you do spareribs, sausage, meatballs, braciola." The Franks' version is lighter, meant to be eaten with salad and bread, not steaming pasta. Leftovers are good for sandwiches the following day.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line cutlets up on a clean work surface with the shorter sides on top and bottom (seam side up, if made from a butterflied cut). Season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with minced garlic, parsley and cheeses. Roll a cutlet into a tight log. Stretch butcher's twine along the length of the roll; wrap string tightly around one end and continue wrapping to the other end, each turn an inch from the previous one; tie loose ends. Repeat with remaining braciola.
- Empty two cans of tomatoes into a mixing bowl. Use your fingers to break tomatoes apart, and discard firm cores and tops. Pour half the sauce into a deep-sided roasting pan. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat, and add oils. When oils are hot but not smoking add braciola and sear, rotating every minute or so, until browned all over. Reduce heat to medium, add whole garlic cloves and sauté 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer braciola to roasting pan, allowing garlic to continue cooking until golden. Add a cup of remaining sauce to skillet, and scrape browned bits from bottom; shut off heat, and pour over braciola. Add remaining sauce to braciola, completely covering braciola. (If there isn't enough sauce, use another can of tomatoes.) Cover tightly with foil, and bake until tender, from 1 to 3 hours. Check frequently for doneness.
- Snip twine off braciola. Arrange, whole or sliced, on a platter, drizzle with some sauce and transfer remaining sauce to a serving bowl. Serve hot or at room temperature. Garnish with Parmigiano-Reggiano.

BRACIOLE
In our family Braciole was served as a special treat for birthdays and holidays. It was Grandma's specialty and the preparation was time consuming. When the meat and sauce were fully cooked, Grandma called us into the kitchen to watch her lift the big roll from the sauce to the cutting board to slice it. The pinwheels of meat, laid side by side on the platter, topped with Grandma's delicious sauce, made a colorful picture. —Cookie Curci, San Jose, California
