Hello Jay,
This sounds like it might be veal braciole. (if not, it should be. braciole is yummy. See below.
Phaed
Veal Braciola Napolitana
(Serves 6 - 8)
Ingredients
* 6 Slices of Veal (Top butt is preferable)
* 12 very thin slices of Eggplant - grilled or sauteed
* 1 recipe of Cheese/Breadcrumb filling
* 6 Roasted Red Bell Peppers - peeled & marinated in
olive oil & garlic overnight or as long as possible
* 1 1/2 Cups shredded Mozzarella Cheese
* 3-4 Quarts of your favorite Tomato Sauce
* 1/4 Cup Olive Oil & 4 Cloves Garlic-crushed
Cheese/Breadcrumb Filling
* 1 Cup Progresso Italian seasoned bread crumbs
* 1 1/2 Cups grated Parmesan or Romano Cheese
* 1/2 Cup fresh Basil, chopped
* 1/2 Cup fresh Italian Parsley, chopped
* 1 Teaspoon Black Pepper
* 1/2 Cup Chicken Stock (or Water)
* 2 fresh Eggs, beaten
Procedure
In a large mixing bowl place bread crumbs, grated cheese, parsley,
basil and black pepper. Mix thoroughly. Mix half the chicken stock
with the beaten eggs and add to the mix. Blend thoroughly. Add
remaining chicken stock a little at a time just until a moist but
crumbly consistency is achieved. (The amount of stock you need will
depend upon the age and dryness of the bread crumbs and cheese)
Place each slice of veal between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound
it with the flat side of a mallet until evenly flattened but not too
thin. Remove top piece of plastic wrap and place eggplant slices to
cover the veal (do not overlap). Then add the cheese/breadcrumb filling
and spread it thinly.
Then sprinkle with shredded Mozzarella Cheese and add two or three slices
of roasted red peppers.
Using the plastic wrap under the veal to help you lift the end of the
meat, carefully roll it up- (jelly roll fashion) as tightly as possible
to enclose the filling taking care to tightly tuck in the ends.
Tie each roll with kitchen string or cord, keeping the ties close together
to avoid the roll opening and then run the cord end to end.
Heat 1/4 cup olive oil in heavy pot over medium heat. Brown 4 cloves
crushed garlic and remove. Add the beef rolls and brown well on all sides.
Add the veal rolls to the already heated tomato sauce, bring to a light
boil, reduce heat and simmer for about 45 minutes or until meat is very
tender when pierced.
Lift out veal rolls to serving platter and skim off any fat from the sauce.
Remove cord from veal rolls and cut into slices. Pour a little sauce onto
the bottom of a serving platter. Place slices on top of sauce and serve
additional sauce on the side.
For leftovers - Cool, cover tightly and refrigerate. Great on a cold plate.

Please help! My husband loves the Timballo recipe from Johnny Carino's.
If there is any way you can find something even close it would be very
apreciated. I will check back to see if you found it!
Kim
Hi Kim,
Well, I could not find the Johnny Carino's recipe, so I had to try to find something similar.
However, therein lies a problem. You see, there's no strict definition for "timballo".
Basically, timballo refers to anything baked in a pastry case, and it shows up all over
Italy in a wide variety of forms -- all of them fairly ostentatious and obviously intended
for celebratory feasts. There are timballi filled with rice, timballi with noodles, timballi
with red sauce, timballi with white sauce, timballi with stuffed pastas.... Some refer to
baked lasagna of any kind as "timballo." So, even though I had the description from the
Johnny Carino's website, it didn't really help much.
Below are some timballo recipes.
Phaed
Timballo di Conchiglie Grande e Pollo Arrostito
(Large Shell Pasta and Roast Chicken Casserole)
Ingredients
4 Thighs Chicken
4 Breasts Chicken
6 Cloves Garlic - chopped
1 Tbl. Oregano flakes - dry
1 Cup Olive oil - Extra virgin
1/2 Lb. Peas - fresh or frozen & cooked for 3-4 minutes then drained
1/2 Cup Crčme Fraiche
1 1/2 Cups Ricotta cheese
1/2 Pound Mortadella - chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
1/2 Cup Parsley - chopped
1 Cup Radicchio - chopped
4 Cups Tomato sauce for pasta (Click for recipe)
Q.B. Salt and Pepper
1 Cup Parmesan cheese - freshly grated
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Put the chicken pieces into a large bowl. add the garlic and 1/2 cup
of olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste along with the oregano.
Mix well and allow to marinate for 30 minutes. At the end of this time,
put the chicken into a baking dish and bake for 35 minutes at 375 degrees F.
Meanwhile cook the Conchiglie in plenty of salted water until they are
very al dente. Drain and put into the bowl that previously held the
chicken.
Make the Tomato Sauce. The recipe provided in the link is a simple easy
tomato based sauce.
By now the chicken should be cooled. Remove the skin from the pieces,
and then the meat from the bones. discard the bones and the skin. Chop
the chicken into small pieces. and put them into a large bowl. Add the
peas, crčme fraiche, ricotta, mortadella, parsley, and radicchio. Mix well.
Add the pasta - the Conchiglie - and then 2 1/2 cups of the tomato sauce.
Mix well but gently so as not to break up the pasta. Given that the pasta
are large, as they are mixed, some of the stuffing will fall into the pasta,
thus partially stuffing them.
Add another 1/4 cup of olive oil and another cup of tomato sauce, and mix
again. Once this is completed, oil a large baking dish. Spoon the pasta
mixture into the dish, and then bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Turn
the oven to 450 degrees F., and finish the dish at this temperature for 10
more minutes.
Serve with additional sauce and Parmesan cheese.

U Tembčne o' Furne -- Baked Timballo
This is an extremely rich feast day dish that was (and is) the beginning of
the Christmas meal in Altamura, a town in the northwestern corner of Puglia.
The recipe is drawn from Altamura Antichi Sapori, a fascinating book about
the town, and also calls for ragų, in the sense of a meat sauce (as opposed
to the slowly cooked piece of meat of the Neapolitan tradition). To serve 4
you'll need:
1 pound (400 g) long mezzi ziti, to be broken in half
Grated relatively mild pecorino romano
Salame (southern-style soprressata), diced (exactly how much is up to taste)
A treccia of mozzarella (a long strand of mozzarella woven into a braid,
weighing about a pound, 450 g), diced
Ragų
For the meatballs:
2.3 pound (300 g) relatively lean pork and veal, ground
2 eggs
2 tablespoons grated pecorino romano
Salt to taste
A grating of fresh nutmeg (about 1/16 teaspoon)
Minced garlic and parsley
Olive oil for frying
Flour
Begin by preparing the ragų.
Make the meatballs by combining all the ingredients. Roll them into
meatballs about 2/3 of an inch in diameter (1.5 cm) between the palms
of your hands, flour them, fry them, and drain them on absorbent paper
for a few seconds, then gently stir them into a little of the ragų so
they can absorb some flavor from it.
Bring salted water to a boil and cook the pasta until half done in it,
then drain it and season it with some of the ragų.
Preheat your oven to 450 F (225 C).
Take an oven proof casserole (terracotta would be ideal) and put down a
ladle of the ragų, then one of the pasta, followed the salame, meatballs,
herb mix, mozzarella, and some grated cheese. Cover it all with another
layer of pasta, then the remaining grated cheese and ragų.
Bake the timballo for about a half hour, keeping an eye on it, and should
it appear to be overbrowning, cover it with a sheet of aluminum foil.
---------------------------------
Rigatoni Timballo "alla Norcina"
1/2 pound pancetta, cut in strips
1/4 pound Italian sausage
1 clove garlic
crushed red pepper
6 ounces rigatoni pasta
4 1/2 ounces pecorino
1 ounce shallots, minced
1 piece pork rind
fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
1 1/2 ounces lentils, boiled
1 1 /2 ounces black truffle
lemon zest
salt
Make the pasta: In a casserole pan, fry the pancetta and the sausage
along with the whole clove of garlic. Add the red pepper. When the fat
has melted and the meats are lightly browned, remove the garlic and add
a bit of extra-virgin olive oil. Cook the pasta until al dente. Drain and
toss with the meat and grated pecorino. Line individula oven-safe dishes
with thin slices of pecorino along the bottom and thin slices of pancetta
along the sides. Fill with the rigatoni. Bake at 350° until the pecorino
has softened, about 10 minutes. Make the sauce: Sauté the shallot, pork
rind, thyme, bay leaf and lentils until heated through. Add the grated
black truffle and remove from the heat. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, adding
some water or broth to thin out the consistency if needed. Pour the sauce
onto a platter and demold the timballi on top. Top with lemon zest.
