Make-Do Braciole Recipe with Freezer Burnt Flank Steak – Simmer down… this isn’t your Nona’s Braciole recipe. It isn’t meant to be. This is a non-traditional Braciole recipe that uses stuff in our cupboard during a pandemic. This is quarantine cooking. Yes Braciola is singular and Braciole is the plural; but around here it’s always just referred to as Braciole.
Ingredients:
65g (1/3 cup / 75 mL) fine breadcrumbs
56g (2 oz) freshly grated Parmesan
30g (1 oz) freshly grated pecorino
30 mL (2 Tbsp) dry basil
Fresh ground black pepper
1 lb (500g) flank steak
30 mL (2 Tbsp) ricotta
Oil for pan
1 or 2 onions, sliced
½ red pepper, sliced
45 mL (3 Tbsp) tomato paste
125 mL (½ cup) red wine
One can (28 oz / 796 mL) whole tomatoes
1 pickled hot pepper

Method:
Preheat oven to 150ºC (300ºF).
Place the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, pecorino, black pepper, and basil in a food processor and pulse to combine.
Butterfly the flank steak, and open it up like a book.
Smear the ricotta over the steak.
Sprinkle and pat the stuffing evenly over the steak, then roll it up jelly roll–style.
Tie with butcher twine in three or four places.
Heat some oil in a Dutch oven, or braiser over medium-high heat.
Add the flank steak, and brown until it releases from the pan.
Turn and brown on all sides then transfer to a plate.
Add more oil if needed along with the onion, and red pepper.
Lower the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally until the onion softens.
Stir in the tomato paste and continue cooking until it has caramelised slightly.
Add the red wine and scrape up the brown fond from the bottom of the pan.
Add the flank steak, tomatoes and hot pepper back to the pan.
Add any leftover bread crumb mixture.
Cover and cook in the oven for about about 1½ hours.
Slice and serve topped with the sauce and vegetables.
