Asparagus Filled Veal Paupiettes with Marsala Sauce

Asparagus Filled veal papiettes with marsala saucePaupiette is the French term for veal scallops, which are filled and rolled.
Pan-frying over hot heat is an excellent way of cooking these thin slices of lean meat.
The high heat seals the meat immediately, making sure it remains moist and succulent.

8 servings

Ingredients
8 veal scallopini
16 fresh asparagus spears
8 thin slices of Black Forest ham
1/2 lb Gruyere cheese, shaved (220 g) 1/4 cup flour (60 ml)
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 tsp crumbled dried thyme (1.2 ml) 1/4 tsp crumbled dried oregano (1.2 ml)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (30 ml)
1 tablespoon butter (15 ml)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour (60 ml)
2/3 cup sweet Marsala wine (180 ml)
2 tsp tomato paste (10 ml)
1 cup low-salt beef stock (240 ml)

Directions
Bring 2 inches (5 cm) of water to boil in a 10-inch (25-cm) skillet.
Place asparagus spears in the water and cook for 4 minutes.
Quickly drain and plunge into cold water to halt the cooking process.
Pat dry with paper towel and set aside.
Line each piece of veal with a slice of Black Forest ham.
Next, divide the cheese equally among the pieces of veal.
Trim 2 asparagus spears to fit the width of the veal.
Lay the spears across the veal, roll the meat around the spears and secure with a toothpick.
Lightly dredge the veal with flour and shake off any excess.
Season the rolls with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with the thyme and oregano.

Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed non-stick sauté pan until hot.
Add the butter and, when bubbly, add the veal and cook, turning several times to sear the meat.
Reduce the heat to medium and continue to cook for 2 minutes longer or until the meat is still pink inside.
Remove the veal from the pan and remove the toothpicks from the rolls. Place the meat directly on warmed plates or a serving platter.
Drain the excess oil from the pan.
Add the Marsala wine to the pan and scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
Reduce the wine by half.
Stir in the tomato paste followed by the beef stock and continue to cook until the sauce thickens and is reduced by half.
Spoon over the veal and serve immediately.

Veal Gorgonzola – gluten free

veal  gorganzola (gluten free)Recipe time: 15 minutes
Quick and Easy

2 servings

This is a small adaptation of the traditional recipe (substituting rice flour for the wheat flour normally called for) If you have no need to make things gluten free – use any flour you like.

Ingredients
3 – 4 veal scallopini (4 slices of thinly pounded veal )
rice flour for dredging
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons of olive oil
¾ cup of white wine
½ cup of heavy cream (whipping cream)
½ cup of Gorgonzola cheese

Directions
Give each veal cutlet a pinch of salt and a sprinkling of freshly cracked black pepper.
Splash out some rice flour on your plate and then dredge each piece of meat in the flour, shaking off the excess.
Heat a heavy skillet over medium high and when hot, add in your olive oil and a moment later, your veal cutlets –
Frying for 2 minutes on each side (If your pan will not fit the 4 cutlets without crowding, do this in batches. The frying time is relatively quick, and the end result will be much better if you give each cutlet some space to fry, rather than steam, as it would an overcrowded pan!!!)
WARNING depending on thickness of cutlets – each side could be fried for as little as 20 seconds — do not over cook !
When the meat has cooked through, take it out of the pan and reserve.
Drain off any oil that remains in the pan and then return the pan to heat.
Immediately add in the white wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up the bottom to release any and all tasty browned bits!
Let the wine come to a simmer and simmer until it is reduced by about half.
Add in the cream and the cheese and then cook until the cheese has melted into the sauce.
Turn the heat down to very low, add the meat back to the pan and let it sit very gently in the sauce for 3-5 minutes.
