Instructions
- Add the tomatoes to a blender and blend on medium speed until smooth. Transfer to a medium-sized pot, season with salt and pepper, and cook on low heat.
- Next, slice the sirloin roast into 12 thin fillets and pound each of them out on a cutting board in between plastic wrap or a plastic bag until it is about ¼ thick. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix together bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, garlic, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper until combined.
- Add a small amount of the breadcrumb mixture to the center of 1 pounded beef fillet and spread it out across the beef fillet, pressing it down into the beef. Roll up the beef to make a roulade.
- Repeat until the beef and stuffing have all been used, and truss each beef roulade with butcher’s twine or a toothpick.
- Next, add 2 tablespoons olive oil to a large pan over medium-high heat and sear the beef until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Add in white wine and cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Pour the tomato sauce, add a lid to the pan, and cook over low heat for 1 hour.
- Remove the butcher's twine, slice, and serve.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: This recipe is meant to be eaten after cooking. However, it can be kept warm over very low heat for up to 30 minutes covered in the pan.
- How to Store: Store the steak and sauce covered in plastic for up to 4 days in the refrigerator. Braciole will freeze well covered in a container for up to 3 months.
- How to Reheat: Add the sauce and steaks to a saucepan and cook covered over low heat for 8-10 minutes or until warm.
- Being incredibly classic, I’ve also seen horse meat being used in classic braciole, but I’ll stay clear of that for now.
- You can use strip loin in this recipe as well.
- Ensure the oil is lightly smoked over medium-high heat before adding the beef to sear.
- You can get creative with this and use pounded pork or chicken instead of beef.
