Toast the pine nuts
Combine all ingredients for filling in one bowl
Pound the beef slices until they're about inch thick. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lay a slice of prosciutto ham on each slice of beef, followed by slice of Provolone and then place 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center. Slightly fold in the sides of the beef, lengthwise
fold one of the ends in, then starting with the other end roll up the slices of beef, pressing firmly so that's it's good and tight. Secure either with toothpicks or wrap the rolls "gift package" style with some thread. (Remember to remove them before serving!)
Heat the olive oil in aheavy panover medium-high heat. Add the beef rolls, seam side down to seal the rolls. Generously brown the beef on all sides. Transfer the rolls to a plate and set aside.
Add the onions and garlic to the pan and saute until they're soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the red wine and bring to a boil, cooking until most of the wine is evaporated, about 3-4 minutes, deglazing the bottom of the pan.
Add the crushed tomatoes, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and simmer for 2 minutes. Return the beef rolls and add just enough water to the pot until the beef rolls are submerged and covered. Return to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 3 hours.
Add the parsley and basil and simmer for another 2 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
