Saltimbocca Alla Romano
8 small slices veal filet
Ground black pepper
4 ounces ham, thinly sliced
8 fresh sage leaves
2 ounces butter
4 tablespoons white wine
Beat the slices of veal fillet until very thin about 4"
square. Then season with ground fresh black pepper. Cut
the ham into the same size pieces as the veal and place a
slice flat on top of the veal with 1 sage leaf sandwiched
between the ham and the veal or placed on top. Secure with
a toothpick. Heat a little butter in a frying pan and fry
the meat over a medium heat until lightly browned on all
sides. Add the wine into the pan. Cover the pan and reduce
the heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until tender.
Remove the toothpicks and arrange ham side up on a serving
dish. Add a little butter to the pan juices, stir well and
pour over the meat
