As to pounding the flank steak, you use the aggressive side of the mallet. The object is to break down the meat a little but also so that it becomes rollable. Without pounding it, it isn't very easy to roll together. Enjoy
YES! I always use the agressive side (side with the dimples)
to pound a flank steak... to about a uniform 1/2 inch thick...
and always slice thin, on the bias (even when rolling)...
Tastiest steak available (along with a skirt steak) IMO...
I even pound them out for grilling... dry rubbed (after pounding) for 24 hours B4... or with a nice terriaki marinade...
Have to try your recipe.... sounds excellent!
