Ingredients
  

  • 400 gr beef Equals 4 slices. I am using cube roll thin slices.
  • half onion
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 30 gr Italian pecorino cheese or Romano
  • 2 handfuls parsley I am using frozen
  • 1/3 glass red wine
  • salt and pepper
  • 400 gr Italian polpa Mine came with extra garlic in it.
  • Belmorso Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1 lt or Novello, if in season
  • 1 loaf rustic bread

Equipment

  • 1 chopping board
  • 1 chopping knife
  • 1 large plate
  • 1 bowl
  • 1 small bowl
  • 1 teaspoon
  • 1 grater
  • food-safe wooden sticks
  • 1 large pot

Method
 

  1. Peel, clean and chop your garlic. Transfer to a large bowl.
  2. Do the same with the onion, cut into thin slices, and place into a separate bowl.
  3. Then, grate the pecorino and add with the garlic.
  4. Chop your parsley and add that too. Mix well. This will be your beef braciole filling.
  5. Season the beef slices with salt.
  6. Fill the beef slice with 4 teaspoons of the filling.
  7. Then, roll it, tucking in the sides to help the filling stay in the braciola. Secure with two wooden sticks. Alternatively, you could use some cooking tie.
  8. Repeat for all your beef slices. Then season them with black pepper.
  9. Add your onion into a large pot to sauté, together with a generous drizzle of Belmorso EVOO.
  10. After 5 minutes, you can add in the braciole. You'll need a very large pot since the braciole with wooden sticks take more space than usual. Let the braciole cook on both sides.
  11. When they have finished cooking on the second side, you can add the wine, and leave to evaporate while the beef keeps cooking.
  12. Then add your polpa, and 1/3 glass of water. Leave to simmer for 50 minutes over low heat and with the lid on.
  13. When ready, take off the heat, and serve them with some rustic bread. Buon appetito.
