Ingredients
- 4 Thin veal cutlets (approx. 150g each)
- 100 g Sausage meat or fine ground pork
- 1 Shallot, finely chopped
- 50 g Mushrooms, very finely diced
- 2 EL Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 Egg, beaten
- 2 EL Olive oil
- 1 Carrot, diced
- 1 Leek, sliced into rings
- 200 ml Dry white wine
- 400 ml Veal stock
- 1 EL Tomato paste
- Salz und Pfeffer Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Carefully pound the veal cutlets flat. For the stuffing, mix sausage meat, chopped shallot, diced mushrooms, parsley, and egg. Season with salt and pepper.
- Distribute the stuffing evenly over the veal cutlets. Roll up the cutlets tightly and secure with kitchen string or toothpicks.
- Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven. Brown the paupiettes on all sides until golden. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pot, sauté carrots and leek until softened. Add tomato paste and cook briefly.
- Deglaze with white wine, scraping up any browned bits. Add the veal stock, bring to a boil, and return the paupiettes to the pot.
- Cover and simmer over low heat for 60-75 minutes, until the meat is tender. Turn occasionally.
- Remove the paupiettes from the sauce. If necessary, reduce the sauce slightly or thicken it. Season with salt and pepper.
- Remove kitchen string or toothpicks. Slice the paupiettes or serve whole, drizzled with the sauce. Serve with mashed potatoes or pasta.
