Directions
- Make a paste with 2 of the garlic cloves, the parsley, basil, salt, pepper and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
- Pound the cutlets thin. Spread a little of the paste over the top of each cutlet. Top the paste with a slice of ham and a sprinkling of the cheese.
- Roll the cutlets up tightly like little jellyrolls and tie them in several places with kitchen string.
- Brown the meat in a skillet in the remaining olive oil. Transfer them as they brown to a dish.
- Cook the onion in the meat drippings over medium heat until they wilt. Stir in the garlic and cook 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, wine and salt to taste. Return the meat rolls with any of their juices to the pan.
- Cover the pan and cook over low heat for 30 minutes.

My Sicilian grandma would make something similar.
Use cube steak instead- less pounding.
Italian Breadcrumbs- 1/2 panko style breadcrumbs, 1/2 Parm/Romano cheese, garlic, parsley and pepper to taste.
Put handfuls of IB on the meat. Make a trough and pour a line of olive oil. Roll up and hold with toothpicks.
Broil a couple minutes each side. (No sauce)
Great to eat the next day.
