Ingredients
- 1 lb. top sirloin
- 1 onion
- 1 carrot
- 3 lices bread stale
- 2 egg hard-boiled
- 4 lices Bacon
- 1 parsley bunch
- salt
- black pepper ground
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 bay leaf
- 1 cup red wine for braising
Instructions
- All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
- Lay the meat on a clean surface and pound it thoroughly with a meat mallet or a rolling pin. Pound all areas of the meat until it flattens into an evenly thin slab.
- Slice the meat into long strips about two inches wide.
- Put the stale bread in a food processor or heavy-duty blender and pulse until the bread has fallen into fine crumbs. If you do not have a food processor, use your hands to crumble the bread.
- Peel the onion and finely chop. Chop the carrot. Set aside.
- Add the bread crumbs to a medium mixing bowl.
- Chop the bacon into small chunks and add to the mixing bowl.
- Roughly chop the parsley and add to the bowl.
- Finely dice or mince the garlic and add to the bowl.
- Cut the hard-boiled eggs into thin slices.
- Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper into the bowl then mix together.
- Spoon some of the bread crumb mixture onto each piece of meat. Spread it across the meat and make sure you have a decently thick layer (you may need to spoon in more).
- Place slices of egg down the meat on top of the stuffing.
- Roll up the meat length-wise (like a hotdog). Safely secure it with some cooking twine so it does not unravel. Toothpicks work here too.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot.
- Place each meat roll in the skillet and cook until the meat is brown all over. This should take about 5-10 minutes.
- Remove the meat rolls from the skillet and place in a deep pot.
- Place the bay leaves in the pot as well.
- In the previously used skillet, toss the onion and carrot. Cook over medium heat for 4 minutes or until the onions become translucent.
- Add the wine to the skillet and cook until it begins to bubble.
- Pour the contents of the skillet into the pot and put the pot over medium-low heat or whatever brings the liquid to a simmer.
- Leave to simmer for roughly 1 ½ hours. If the bottom of the pot ever begins to appear, add more wine or water, but avoid adding so much it drowns the beef olives.
- The beef olives will be done when the meat is soft and very tender.
- Before serving, remove the twine or toothpicks. Pour a little bit of the remaining sauce over each meat olive and enjoy!
