I made these tonight as directed I didn't grate the cheese but just used some thin slices of grana padino (think thats right)but after browning along with some meatballs and sausages I deglazed with some red wine and added 2 cans of tomatoes and 1 crushed lots of garlic and oregano and simmered for a few hours I love braciola with raisins I like that bit of sweet they give Very good easy recipe thanks for posting
