Veal Braciola
Veal Braciola is tender veal cutlets rolled up with a delicious filling and braised until fork tender in you favorite tomato sauce. My Grandmother’s recipe uses beef or specifically flank steak. I prefer making both types of braciola when family and friends come to visit.
The word braciola means many things depending on the region. They can mean cutlets or rolled up scallops. In this recipe it means rolled up and stuffed with pine nuts, Romano cheese, prosciutto and other ingredients that make up an excellent side dish to accompany pasta or a main dish all by itself.
This Veal Braciola recipe is easy to make and very impressive at the dinner table. Enjoy!
