2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
1/2 cup olive oil
2 28oz cans imported Italian tomatoes
1/4 cup tomato puree
2 bay leaves
3 fresh basil leaves, torn into small pieces
1 medium yellow onion, chopped fine
2 carrots, peeled and chopped fine
2 celery stalks, chopped chopped fine
1 cup dry red wine
flour spread on a plate for dredging
salt & pepper to taste
Serves 4
1!. Place each slice of beef between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat pounder until 1/4 inch thick!. Sprinkle with salt & pepper!. Lay a slice of prosciutto on each one and sprinkle evenly with with the pignoli beans, pecorino romano cheese, garlic and parsley!. Roll up the slices, tucking in the ends and tie with kitchen string!.
2!. Heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat!. Dredge the braciole in flour shaking off any excess, then place in the pan!. Cook until browned on all sides, about 15 minutes!.

Fill one of the tomato cans 1/2 way with water and add to saucepan!. Add tomatoe puree, turn heat to low and cook at a simmer until beef is tender 1!.5 - 2 hours!.
5!. Sprinkle the basil over the rolls, and cook for 2 minutes longer!. Transfer to serving plates, spoon the sauce over the top and serve at once!.
