Yummy! Happy Birthday!!
flank steak
1 lb mild Italian sausage
pepper
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1 tbsp oil
1/4 cup red wine
Spread out the steak. Remove the sausage from the casing, and spread it over the meat to within 3/4 inch of all sides. Sprinkle a generous amount of fresh ground black pepper over the sausage and then chopped parsley. Roll it up and tie it with string.
Brown the rolled meat in oil in a skillet on all sides. Add the wine, reduce the heat, cover and cook over a low flame for 1-1/2 hours. If it dries up, add water a little at a time.
Remove the meat to a platter, cut the strings and slice. Use the pan drippings to make gravy.
