Ingredients

3 cups Italian-flavored bread crumbs

1/2 cup grated Romano cheese

1/2 pound Genoa or other salami finely chopped

4 eggs

1 cup water

1/2 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper

1 1/2 pounds boneless beef round or rump roast cut ⅛" slice

(abt 12 to 15 slices)

1/4 cup olive oil

1 jar spaghetti sauce - (28 oz)

Preparation

In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs, cheese, salami, eggs, water, and pepper; mix well. Spread mixture evenly over beef slices; roll up jellyroll-style and secure each with a toothpick.

In a large pot, heat oil over medium-high heat and brown beef rolls in batches for 6 minutes, turning to brown on all sides. Reduce heat to low and add spaghetti sauce; cover and simmer for 35 to 40 minutes, or until beef is tender. Remove toothpicks before serving.

This recipe yields 4 servings.

Comments: Why not ask the butcher to cut the rump roast into thin slices for you? It sure makes this easier!
