Directions:

  1. In the casserole, heat the oil over moderate heat until hot. Add the onions and cook, stirring constantly, until golden. Add the water, canned tomatoes, tomato sauce, and tomato paste. Add the garlic, basil, sugar, pepper flakes and season with salt. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, for 2 hours. Add braciole and meatballs and cook for 20 minutes longer.

  6. Spread a thin layer of the stuffing on each slice of the meat, roll up the meat to enclose the stuffing and tie with string.
