Saltimbocca

Saltimbocca, Italian for ‘jump into the mouth’, is one of the great dishes of the world, a thin veal escalope flavoured with sage and wrapped in Parma ham before being briefly pan-fried. Serve with boiled new potatoes. Use a potato peeler to shave off a few curls of Parmesan and scatter them over the potatoes together with a few snipped chives.
