Notes

  • Tie the steak together loosely enough that the filling is not squeezed out of the steak, but tight enough that it doesn't fall apart while you’re rotating it in the pot. 
  • Make sure the oil is hot in the pan before adding the meat so that you get a nice sear on each side. 
  • Keep the pot to just a simmer and not a boil while the braciole is braising. If you have the heat too hot, the sauce will evaporate too quickly and burn.
