Braised Veal With Tomato Sauce And Black Olives
(Vitella alla Sarda)
What You Need:
  • 4 Bat anchovy fillets
  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
  • A 3-pound boneless veal roast, securely tied
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup finely chopped onions
  • ¼ cup finely chopped carrots
  • ¼ cup finely chopped celery
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • 1 cup chicken stock, fresh or canned
  • ½ cup finely chopped fresh parsley, preferably the Flat-Ieaf Italian type
  • ½ to 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Salt
  • White pepper
  • cups Salsa di Pomodori
  • 1 tablespoon slivered pitted black olives, preferably Mediterranean style

  • How To Cook:
    1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Soak the anchovies in cold water for 10 minutes, then pat them dry with paper towels and cut them into 1-inch pieces.

    2. Stir the garlic and 1 tablespoon of parsley together and roll the anchovy pieces in this mixture. With a small sharp knife, cut deep incisions in the veal and insert the pieces of anchovy.

    3. Heat the oil in a heavy flameproof casserole or Dutch oven that is large enough to hold the veal comfortably. In it, over high heat, brown the meat on all sides. Then transfer it to a plate.

    4. Add the onion, carrots and celery to the fat remaining in the casserole and, stirring frequently, cook the vegetables over moderate heat for 7 or 8 minutes, or until they color lightly.

    5. Pour in the wine and cook over high heat for 2 or 3 minutes, stirring constantly and scraping in any browned bits that cling to the bottom and sides of the pan. Return the veal to the casserole and add the chicken stock.

    6. Bring to a boil over moderate heat, cover, and cook in the middle of the oven for 1½ hours, or until the veal is tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife.

    7. Transfer the veal to a carving board, cut off the strings and sprinkle the outside of the roast with ½ cup of chopped parsley. Carve the veal into slices ¼ inch thick and arrange these, slightly overlapping, in 1 or 2 rows.

    8. on a heated serving platter. Working quickly, strain the braising stock through a fine sieve into a small saucepan, pressing down hard on the vegetables before discarding them.

    9. Skim as much fat as possible from the surface and then boil the sauce briskly over high heat, stirring frequently, until it has been reduced to about 1 cup.

    10. Taste and season it with lemon juice and salt and pepper if needed. Spoon the stock over the sliced veal.

    11. Bring the tomato sauce to a simmer in a small saucepan, stir in the slivered black olives and serve it separately in a warm sauceboat along with the veal.
