Mix to combine. Season slices of beef with salt and pepper. Add 1 tbsp. proscuitto stuffing to centre of each beef cutlet. Roll, folding in sides, like a burrito or spring roll. Secure with toothpicks. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Add 3 tbsp. olive oil. When oil is hot, add beef rolls and brown on each side. Transfer rolls to sauce. Add red wine to pan. Stir, scraping brown bits on the bottom of the pan to incorporate. Add to sauce. Stir to combine. Cook, uncovered, until braciole is tender, about 1 1/2 hour.
