for the Saltimbocco

  • 1 piece Flour
  • 7 piece Sage leaves
  • 3 piece Parma ham
  • 3 piece Olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Butter

preparation

  1. IMPORTANT: first heat the vegetable stock and keep it hot the whole time! (Adding cold vegetable stock to the risotto would interrupt the cooking process abruptly!) – Dice the onion and garlic very finely – Wash the lemon with hot water, rub dry, then rub the peel and squeeze out the juice

Prepare lemon risotto

  1. Sweat the onion and garlic in hot olive oil – then roast the risotto rice with it – deglaze with wormwood – season with salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar – then add about 1/3 of the vegetable stock and cook gently over a medium flame – stir every few minutes and as soon as the rice is a little drier, keep adding a ladle of the hot vegetable stock – towards the end of the cooking time, season with lemon juice and lemon zest and then fold in the butter and Parmesan

Saltimbocco

  1. Thinly plate the veal escalope – season with salt and pepper – sprinkle thinly with flour on one side – put the ham on the other side (unfortunately I only had boiled ham – normally you take Parma ham) – put the sage leaves over it and secure with roulade needles or toothpicks – Fry the sage / ham side in hot olive oil for a few minutes, turn it over and finish frying the 2nd side as well – Take out the meat, cover with foil and keep it warm at 80 degrees
  2. Deglaze the roasted aromas in the pan with a small amount of the vegetable stock and season with a small dash of white wine and / or lemon juice – bring to the boil again – if you like, you can thicken the sauce with a sauce thickener or add a tablespoon of ice-cold butter
