Braccialoni - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (2 pound) boneless round steak
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1/2 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
    8 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
    2 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 (32 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
    1 (16 ounce) package uncooked spaghetti
Preparation
    Pound meat as thin as possible, hopefully 1/4 inch thick. Drizzle or brush with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then sprinkle with a thin layer of bread crumbs. Layer the prosciutto over the crumbs, and sprinkle with remaining bread crumbs, and chopped hard-cooked eggs. Roll the meat up into a tight spiral, and secure with kitchen twine.
    Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large saucepan, or stock pot over medium-high heat. Sear the outside of the roast on all sides. Pour spaghetti sauce over the roast, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer for 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
    Remove meat from the sauce to a serving platter, and let stand for 15 minutes. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add spaghetti, and cook until tender, about 7 minutes. Drain.
    Carve the meat into slices about 1/2 inch thick. Serve with spaghetti and sauce.
