Preheat the grill. Season the top round with the olive oil and Essence. Place on the grill. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. For the risotto: In a saute pan, heat the olive oil.
When the pan is smoking hot, add the onions, shallots and garlic.
Saute the vegetables for 1 minute. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the rice, saute for 1 minute. While stirring constantly, add the veal reduction, wine, Marsala, and meat stock, one cup at a time. Cook the risotto for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring constantly. Fold in the peppers, cheese and raisins. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the round from the grill and slice on the bias into 2-ounce portions. To assemble, mound the risotto in the center of the platter. Fan the meat around the risotto. Garnish with the brunoised peppers, grilled green onion, and with a peeler, cut off thin slices of the cheese over the top of the risotto.
