Here is our ‘Rolled Wagyu Flank’ from our flood relief dinner in Melbourne. We made it with a beautful piece of meat from @garysmeats at Prahran market! It’s stuffed with a speck and olive sourdough pangrattato and roasted in a simple tomato sauce. There’s a little bit of technique in this one but worth all the effort. Enjoy guys!
