PRESENTATION

Recipe by
Lulù Gargari

The veal and speck rolls are a really tasty main course of meat! With each bite, you'll savor the intense and smoky flavor of the speck that blends with a heart of gooey provola, all wrapped in tender veal slices. The breadcrumbs also add a rustic touch, and after baking, create a crispy and fragrant crust on the outside. To keep them together, we used long wooden skewers, threading the rolls alternating with slices of red onion and bay leaves: this way you'll get particularly tasty and savory skewers, perfect to serve with a side of potatoes or seasonal vegetables for a family dinner or a meal with your friends!

Preparation

How to prepare Veal and Speck Rolls

To prepare the veal and speck rolls, first cut the provola into slices 1 and then into small cubes. Pour the breadcrumbs into a bowl and season with oil 2, salt, and pepper 3.

Add the dried parsley as well 4 and mix to combine the ingredients 5. Pour the seasoned breadcrumbs onto a tray. At this point, gently pound the veal slices with a meat tenderizer 6.

Place two slices of speck on each slice of meat 7, then cover with the breadcrumbs 8 and add a cube of provola 9.

First, fold over the long sides of the slice, then roll it up starting from the short side 10. Roll the rolls in the breadcrumbs, ensuring all sides are covered 11 12.

Cut the onion into fairly thick slices 13. Assemble the skewers by threading onto the wooden skewers in this order: onion, bay leaf 14, roll 15.

Continue with more onion, bay leaf, and roll. Finish with another bay leaf and a slice of onion 16. Place the skewers on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and drizzle them with a bit of oil 17. Bake in the oven at 350°F for 25 minutes. Then increase the temperature to 400°F and continue baking for another 5 minutes on grill mode. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly: your veal and speck rolls are ready to be enjoyed. Serve them with a fresh salad of lamb's lettuce and cherry tomatoes 18!

Storage

The veal and speck rolls can be stored in the refrigerator, in an airtight container, for up to 2 days. Before serving, you can reheat them in the oven for a few minutes at 350°F, perhaps adding a drizzle of oil.

Advice

You can customize the filling of the veal and speck rolls, for example by substituting the provola with other stringy cheeses or the speck with prosciutto, pancetta, or bresaola.
