Preparation

Step 1

*Combine* all stuffing ingredients. *Sprinkle* steak lightly with salt and pepper and place a piece of prosciutto on each piece then *spread* evenly with stuffing mixture.

*Roll* up steaks, tucking in sides where possible, and secure with toothpicks. *Saute* rolls in a teaspoon of EVOO until brown on all sides. *Remove* to a plate.

*Add* wine and ragu to pan and bring to the boil, scraping up brown bits. *Return* rolls to sauce, reduce heat, cover and simmer until tender, about 1 hour.

*Alternately*, place rolls in slow cooker, cover with sauce and cook on low for 4 hours, until meat is tender.

*Serve* with fava bean puree or polenta or whole wheat noodles.
