Preparation
Step 1
1. In a small bowl, combine pine nuts, raisins, and garlic. Lay meat slices on a work surface and season them lightly on both sides with salt and pepper. Sprinkle pine nut and raisin mixture on one side of the slices. Roll slices up and secure them with a toothpick or kitchen twine.
2. Place rolls in a large, deep sauté pan and add oil, onions, and 4 cups water. Place over medium heat and simmer, uncovered, until water has evaporated, about 1 hour.
3. Continue cooking, turning rolls with tongs, until they are lightly browned on all sides. Add wine to pan and cook until evaporated. Add tomatoes and tomato paste to pan and bring to a simmer. Cook until sauce is very thick, about 2 hours.
