How to make Roman-style Saltimbocca
To make the Saltimbocca, start cutting the meat slices into pieces of the same size, not too small and not too big. Remember that the meat tends to shrink a little during cooking.
Place half a slice of ham on each veal slice, then overlap a sage leaf on each one and secure everything with a wooden toothpick. Pour a little flour into a bowl and coat the veal slices on both sides, shaking off the excess. You only need a light coating.
In a pan, heat the butter and place the slices to cook over medium heat for a few minutes on both sides. Add salt and then deglaze with dry white wine. Let it evaporate.
Add a sprinkle of pepper and remove the pan from the heat. The Roman-style Saltimbocca is ready, serve hot with the remaining sauce in the pan.
