Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.
  2. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 10 minutes.
  3. Add the tomatoes and their juices, thyme and basil; mix well.
  4. Once the mixture starts to bubble at the edges, season with salt and pepper to taste, then cover and cook for 30 minutes, stirring once or twice (as needed).
  5. Use a food mill to process the sauce (or, alternatively, push it through a fine-mesh strainer), discarding the solids.
  6. The yield should be about 3 cups; over and refrigerate until ready to use.
  7. For the veal and vegetables: Cut the meat into four 6-ounce portions; place each one between pieces of plastic wrap.
  8. Use a mallet to pound each portion to an even thickness of 1/8 inch; discard the plastic wrap.
  9. Heat a grill pan on the stovetop over high heat.
  10. Meanwhile, cut four 1/4 -inch slices lengthwise from the center section of the eggplant and peel them (reserving the remaining eggplant for another use, if desired).
  11. Combine the sliced eggplant, radicchio, 4 tablespoons of the oil and the vinegar in a mixing bowl; toss to coat evenly.
  12. Season with salt and pepper on all sides.
  13. Grill the vegetables for a total of 8 miniutes, turning them over halfway through.
  14. Transfer to a cutting board to cool.
  15. When cool enough to handle, cut the radicchio and eggplant into thin strips, then place on a plate and cover loosely until ready to use.
  16. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  17. Lightly season the pounded veal slices with salt and pepper on both sides.
  18. Use one-quarter of the grilled radicchio and eggplant strips to create a layer on top of each piece of pounded veal, then place 1 slice of the smoked mozzarella on top of the vegetable layer.
  19. Roll up tightly and use toothpicks to secure both ends, or the middle, of each involtino. .
  20. Heat a large, ovenproof saute pan over medium heat, then add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil.
  21. Add the 4 involtini to the pan and cook for 4 minutes, turning them as needed, until lightly browned.
  22. Pour the reserved tomato sauce evenly over the involtini to cover them, then sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese.
  23. Transfer to the oven and bake for 12 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  24. If desired, cut each involtino in half, then stand the halves on end on the plate. Garnish with tender stems of baby arugula, if desired. Serve hot.
