Preparation

What You Need


Rolls:
6 large veal cutlets, about 4 oz (120 g) each, pounded thin
8 oz (225 g) fresh spinach, washed and stemmed
8 oz (225 g) Canadian Gouda cheese, thinly sliced
1 tbsp (15 ml) melted butter
1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
Salt
Freshly ground pepper, to taste

Sauce:
1 shallot, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
3 tbsp (45 ml) butter
2 cups (500 ml) sliced mushrooms, your choice
2 tbsp (30 ml) flour
1/2 cup (125 ml) white wine
1 1/2 cups (375 ml) veal stock or
beef broth
1/2 cup (125 ml) 2 % evaporated milk
Herbes de Provence, to taste
Salt
Freshly ground pepper, to taste

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C).

Cover each veal cutlet with spinach, then Canadian Gouda cheese. Roll up tightly, starting by narrow end. Secure with toothpicks.

In a frying pan, heat butter and oil and brown rolls on all sides. Place rolls in an ovenproof dish, season generously with salt and pepper. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, depending on size.

In the same frying pan, cook shallots and garlic in 1 tbsp (15 mL) butter until soft. Add mushrooms and cook 5 minutes. Set aside.

Melt remaining butter in frying pan. Whisk in flour to make a roux. While whisking, add wine and broth. Bring to a boil and simmer until thick 3, 4 min. Lower heat and add milk, herbs, seasonings and cooked mushrooms. Thicken to taste by cooking (5, 10 min) longer to reduce liquid. Check seasoning.

Slice rolls, spoon on sauce and serve on a bed of pasta with vegetables.


Tips

Variations: Replace spinach with blanched or canned asparagus.

You can make this recipe ahead and freeze it. When reheating, thin sauce with a little broth, if necessary, being careful not to boil it.
