8 slices of ham (same size as veal) 
flour
¼ cup white wine, bouillon or veal stock 60ml
butter for browning
to taste: salt & fresh ground pepper

Cut the Scallopini into 4" squares (10cm). 
Season lightly with salt and pepper. 
Place a pinch of chopped sage on each Scallopini and cover with a slice of ham, same size as the veal.
Attach each serving with a toothpick to ensure that the ham doesn't move during cooking.

Let the sauce reduce for a few minutes.
