Make the filling: combine Parmigiano, half the garlic, parsley, pine nuts, and raisins. Season with salt and pepper. Lay a slice of mortadella on each beef cutlet, then spread a tablespoon of the filling over the mortadella.

Roll each cutlet tightly and secure with kitchen twine or toothpicks. Season the outside with salt and pepper.

Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over high heat. Brown the braciole rolls on all sides, turning carefully, for 6–8 minutes until deeply golden. Remove and set aside.

In the same pot, cook onion until softened, 5 minutes. Add remaining garlic, cook 1 minute. Add wine and cook until reduced by half. Add crushed tomatoes and bring to a simmer.

Return the braciole to the pot, nestled in the sauce. Cover and braise over low heat for 1 hour until the beef is very tender and the sauce is rich and thick. Remove twine, slice into rounds, and serve over pasta or polenta, spooning the tomato sauce generously over everything.
