1 1/2 lbs. round steak, 1/4-inch thick
Salt and pepper
3 strips bacon
1 cup fresh bread crumbs
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped parsley

2 cups hot water
1 clove garlic, minced

Cut steak into 6 oblong pieces. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pound thin with edge of plate. Top each with half-strip bacon.

Mix crumbs, onion, parsley and cheese. Spread over bacon. Roll up and secure with toothpicks or string. Brown gently on all sides in hot oil.
