Veal Rollatini Recipes

Steps:

• Combine spinach, egg, cheese and 1/4 cup Sauce in medium bowl; set aside.
• Season cutlets, if desired, with salt and black pepper. Evenly top cutlets with spinach mixture leaving 1/4-inch edge; then roll up and secure with wooden toothpicks. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and brown veal. Add Sauce and reduce heat to medium and cook covered, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes or until veal is cooked. Serve, if desired, with hot cooked pasta or rice.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the veal with salt and pepper. Melt 1/2 tablespoon of butter with 2 teaspoons of oil in a heavy large frying pan over high heat. Working in batches if necessary, add the veal and saute until just cooked through and golden, about 45 to 60 seconds per side. Transfer the veal to a platter and tent with foil to keep it warm. Repeat with the remaining veal, adding more butter and oil to the pan as necessary.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of oil in the same pan over high heat. Add the mushrooms and shallots. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and saute until the mushrooms are golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add the wine, broth and saffron, and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Add the cream and boil until the sauce thickens slightly, stirring often, about 4 minutes. Add the peas and return the sauce to a simmer. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper.
• Pour the sauce over the veal and serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Put the slices of veal between sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a flat mallet without breaking the tissues. Set aside. Combine the prosciutto and pork in a mixing bowl. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a small skillet and cook the onion, stirring, until it is wilted. Add this to the mixing bowl. Add the garlic, bread crumbs, nutmeg, pepper, lemon rind, egg and cheese. Blend well. Lay out the pieces of veal on a flat surface. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spoon an equal portion of the filling on each slice. Wrap the meat around the filling, folding and tucking the ends in envelope fashion. Tie each roll neatly in 2 places with string. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dredge the rolls all over in flour and shake off any excess. Select a heavy skillet large enough to hold the rolls in 1layer without crowding them. Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter and, when it is quite hot but not browned, add the veal rolls. Cook, turning occasionally, until the are nicely browned all over, 3 or 4 minutes. Reduce the heat and continue cooking over moderately low heat for about 15 minutes. Add the wine and stir to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the bottom and sides of the pan. Add the chicken broth. Bring to the boil and let cook over high heat for about 5 minutes. Remove the strings and serve the veal rolls with the sauce spooned over.

Steps:

• Divide the veal tenderloin into three pieces. Carefully and gracefully pound each piece with a meat mallet on each side until 1/8-inch thick.
• Dice the capocollo, Prosciutto, soppressata, provolone, parsley and basil and place in an 8-inch bowl. Mix together.
• Beat eggs together in a small bowl, then add 1 tablespoon egg to the bowl with the meat mixture and mix in. Carefully divide stuffing into 3 portions and roll each up in a scallopini very tightly.
• Heat oil in an 8-inch saute pan until lightly smoking. Roll each rollatini in flour, then shake off excess and roll in remaining egg wash until covered. Place rollatinis in hot oil, seam-side down.
• Allow to brown, lowering heat as needed. Gracefully turn, cooking scallopini until they have golden-brown crusts, approximately 3 minutes on each side. Remove excess oil from pan, then place back on medium heat and add mushrooms. Allow to cook for 2 minutes, then season with salt, pepper and parsley. Add Marsala wine to deglaze pan, then carefully add stock, butter and demi-glace. Allow heat to remain on medium until the liquid reduces by half, then by half again. When you see the pan sauce is the consistency of heavy cream, you have achieved nirvana. Gracefully place rollatinis on a plate, then cover with remaining sauce and mushrooms.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
• Spread bread crumbs in a shallow baking pan and toast, stirring once or twice, until golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Gently pound veal cutlets to slightly less than 1/8 inch thick between 2 sheets of plastic wrap with flat side of a meat pounder or with a rolling pin, then cut into roughly 4- by 3-inch pieces.
• Stir together parsley, garlic, 3/4 cup cheese, 1/4 cup oil, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper until a paste forms.
• Stir together bread crumbs, remaining 1/2 cup cheese, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Season cutlets lightly with salt and pepper and spread 1 side of each piece with 1 teaspoon parsley-garlic paste.
• Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Roll up veal pieces (paste sides up), starting from a short side. Put remaining cup oil in a bowl and dip each roll in it, letting excess drip off, then dredge in bread-crumb mixture, pressing gently to help crumbs adhere. Transfer to baking sheet.
• Thread 1 veal roll onto a skewer, then 1 piece of onion, leaving about 1/4 inch between. Repeat on same skewer 2 more times, then transfer skewer to baking sheet. Assemble 6 more skewers in same manner (last skewer will have only 2 rolls).
• Prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 1 to 2 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderately high.
• Grill veal on a lightly oiled grill rack, covered only if using gas grill, turning over once, until rolls are golden, about 6 minutes total.
• Remove veal and onion from skewers and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Drop the garlic slices into the olive oil, and let it infuse for 30 minutes to an hour.
• Pound the veal scallops into thin scaloppine: First, place each slice between sheets of wax paper and tenderize it, preferably with the toothed face of a meat mallet-don't tear through the meat. Flatten and spread the meat into a thin oval, roughly 8 inches long and 4 inches wide and 1/4 inch thick. The pieces will vary in size.
• To make the rollatini filling, toss together the bread crumbs, pecorino, oregano, chopped parsley, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Drizzle over it 4 tablespoons of the garlic-infused oil (discarding the slices), and keep tossing the crumbs until they're evenly moistened.
• Lay out the scaloppine and lightly salt the top surface. Sprinkle a tablespoon or a bit more of the bread crumbs over each scaloppine, covering the top almost to the edges. Starting at one of the narrow ends, roll up each of the scaloppine the long way, enclosing the crumbs. Stick a toothpick into the flap end of the meat all the way, and all the way through the roll, to hold it together.
• Brush the rolls with some of the remaining oil, set them on a platter, and sprinkle the remaining bread crumbs on top. Let the rollatini sit (so the flavors permeate the meat) for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, light your grill and heat the rack over a medium flame or bed of charcoal or wood coals (my favorite for flavor). Set the rollatini on the grill, and rotate them every 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, to keep them evenly moist as they cook. Occasionally brush or drizzle over them more garlic-infused oil. When they're grill-marked all around, after 7 minutes or so, check doneness by slicing into a roll. If the center is not warm, continue grilling slowly, lowering the flame or spreading out the coals as needed.
• Remove to a warm platter, brush the rollatini again with oil, and let them sit for a couple of minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Mash anchovy paste into 4 tablespoons butter in a bowl until combined. Gently pound cutlets to slightly less than 1/8 inch thick between 2 sheets of plastic wrap with flat side of a meat pounder or with a rolling pin. Pat cutlets dry and season lightly with salt and pepper, then spread 1 1/2 teaspoons anchovy butter over top of each cutlet. (You will have a little butter left over.) Sprinkle 1/4 cup cheese over anchovy butter, leaving a 1/4-inch border, then arrange spinach leaves, overlapping in 1 layer, to cover cutlets. Working with 1 cutlet at a time, arrange with a short side nearest you and roll up tightly, then secure with a wooden pick.
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 425°F.
• Pat rolls dry. Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a 12-inch ovenproof heavy skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then sauté veal, turning occasionally, until golden on all sides, about 4 minutes total. Transfer skillet to oven and bake veal until just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer veal with tongs to a platter (reserve skillet) and keep warm, covered.
• Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from skillet, then add wine and deglaze skillet by boiling (on stovetop) over high heat, scraping up brown bits, until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, then add any juices accumulated on platter and swirl in remaining 2 tablespoons butter (not remaining anchovy butter). Cook over low heat until incorporated. Stir in parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
