An economical way of cooking veal, excellent hot or cold. The bones which are removed (ask the butcher to do this) provide the basis of a stock for Pasta in brodo, also called Minestra in brodo in the north.

Ingredients

  • a shoulder of veal, boned
  • olive oil
  • the juice of 2 lemons

Method

Lay the meat out on a board, put a leaf of rosemary and origano here and there, crush the garlic and paste the meat with it. Add a few drops of olive oil. Roll it up into a good shape and tie it with string.

Heat some olive oil in a cast-iron pot or copper pan, put in the meat and brown on all sides (20 minutes) on top of the stove. Add the juice of 2 lemons, put on the lid and cook on
