Roast Loin of Veal
Origin: London, England
Source: Isabella Beeton, 1861
Ingredients
- Veal
- melted butter
Instructions
- Paper the kidney fat;
- roll in and skewer the flap, which makes the joint a good shape;
- dredge it well with flour, and put it down to a bright fire.
- Should the loin be very large, skewer the kidney back for a time to roast thoroughly.
- Keep it well basted, and a short time before serving, remove the paper from the kidney, and allow it to acquire a nice brown colour, but it should not be burnt.
- Have ready some melted butter, put it into the dripping-pan after it is emptied of its contents, pour it over the veal, and serve.
- Garnish the dish with slices of lemon and forcemeat balls, and send to table with it, boiled bacon, ham, pickled pork, or pig's cheek.
