Bracciole - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb round steak, about 1/3 inch thick
    1/4 lb salt pork
    1 tablespoon parsley, flat leaf, chopped fine
    1 garlic clove, minced fine
    1/4 cup fresh breadcrumb, grated
    1/4 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated
    salt and pepper
    flour (for dredging) (optional)
    hot oil (for frying)
Preparation
    Pound the steak out to about half it's thickness or less.
    Cut the rind off of the salt pork and save for a soup pot. Mince the salt pork into a paste with the rest of the ingredients.
    Spread the paste over the steak and roll the steak up from the longest end, tying the roll with kitchen twine.
    dredge with flour and fry in the same pot you will use to make your gravy (red sauce).
    After it is browned well, cover it with sauce and cook for about 2 hours. Remove strings, slice, and serve along side pasta, covered with your sauce.
    To make it a meal just serve larger portions. A one-pound bracciole would serve about 8 people alongside of pasta, meatballs, pork ribs, beef roast, etc. We would cook a ton of food for a family feast so a little bit of each was all we needed.
