Pound the beef cutlets and stretch them and make very thin. Lay a slice of ham or pancetta on each piece, sprinkle with a teaspoon of the garlic parsley combination, a few capers and a a portion of the Romano cheese. Roll each cutlet up over the filling and secure with a toothpick or tie with thread. In a deep skillet over medium high heat, brown the beef rolls on all sides in the olive oil. Remove as they brown and set aside.
