Ingredients
- 1/2 pound ground veal
- 1/2 pound ground pork
- 1/2 pound prosciutto, diced
- 1/2 cup diced Asiago cheese (2 ounces)
- 1/2 cup diced fontina cheese ( 2 ounces)
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup chopped fennel
- 2 cups marinated artichokes, cut into 1-inch pieces(reserve oil in jar)
- 1/2 cup coarsely chopped Italian parsley
- 1/2 cup minced fresh sage leaves
- 1 egg ,beaten1 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 1/2 to 2 pounds flank steak
- 2 hard-cooked eggs
- 1/2 cup dry red wine
Directions
In a large bowl combine veal, pork, prosciutto, cheeses, garlic, fennel, artichokes, herbs, egg, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper and mix well. Trim excess fat from flank steak and pound to approximately 1/8 - thickness.(This takes a few minutes, but it is important to the recipe. Use a kitchen mallet or a heavy flat weight such as a wine bottle.) Spread stuffing over meat, covering it completely. Lay egg quarters down center, lenghtwise, and roll meat around stuffing without overlapping. Tie with kitchen string at one-inch intervals to hold securely; if any stuffing escapes, carefully push back in.
Heat a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1/4 cup of the reserved artichoke oil. Heat oil and add stuffed beef roll to hot oil and brown on all sides. Add wine, cover and cook over low heat for 45 minutes. Turn beef roll over halfway through cooking. When cooked, transfer meat to a serving platter and remove the string. Slice and serve with the pan juices. The Falso Magro roll is also terrific served on buffets, at picnics or even cold the next day.

I LOVE this recipe! This is definitely not a meal for dieters or for those who are wary of strong flavors (specifically garlic. I replace the fennel with leeks (white part only and generally serve with rice or egg noodles, as there is plenty of delicious sauce that must not be wasted! A must try!!

This was very tasty but difficult to roll. I had extra stuffing leftover so I made burgers with it. I'd leave out the fennel next time. We took it cold to a picnic & it was good.
