VEAL CUTLETS WITH PROSCIUTTO AND SAGE (SALTIMBOCCA ALLA ROMANA)

Steps:

• Rinse and halve the zucchini. Thinly slice lengthwise. Rinse and dry the sage, then remove the leaves. Rinse and dry the meat, pound flat, and cut in half.
• Top each half of meat with a slice of zucchini and prosciutto. Cover with 2 sage leaves, and secure everything with a wooen skewer. Heat the oil in a pan, and sear the cutlets. Season with pepper, remove from the pan, and keep warm.
• Deglaze the pan with wine. Bring to a boil and reduce. Mix the flour with the butter (in a 1:1 ratio) and add to the pan. Cook until the sauce has thickened. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Arrange the skewers on plates, serve with the sauce, and garnish with lemon wedges.

• Deglaze pan juices with white wine, stirring to loosen any browned bits. Bring briefly to a boil. Whisk in remaining cold butter, and season with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over cutlets and serve.

VEAL ESCALOPES WRAPPED WITH PROSCIUTTO, SAGE & LEMON (SALTIMBOCCA)

Steps:

• Bash out the escalopes until they are about 5mm thick. Place a sage leaf on each one, wrap with the prosciutto, then press another sage leaf on top and flatten out with your hand. Dust lightly with the seasoned flour.
• Heat the oil and the butter in a large frying pan until foaming, and fry the veal for 4-5 mins on each side until the prosciutto is crisp, then remove from the pan. Add the Marsala wine to the pan and sizzle to make a sauce, scraping any tasty bits off the bottom. Add the lemon juice to taste. Put the veal back in the pan to heat through, then serve with a green salad and some fried potatoes or crusty bread.

Steps:

• 1 Sprinkle both sides of the veal with salt and pepper. Place 1 sage leaf on each piece. Top with the prosciutto slices. With toothpicks, pin the meats and sage together. 2 In a large heavy skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter with the oil over medium-high heat. Add half the veal pieces and cook until browned on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the veal and cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer the meat to a serving dish and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining veal. 3 Add the wine and cook over high heat, scraping the pan until the liquid is slightly syrupy. Remove from the heat and swirl in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Pour the sauce over the veal and serve immediately. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc.
