Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb veal, round 1/2-inch thick
4 thin slices boiled ham
8 small slice swiss cheese
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 slightly beaten egg
1/4 cup milk
1 cup fine dry breadcrumb
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine
white wine (optional)
watercress (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Cut veal in 8 pieces; pound very thin, about 1/8-inch thick. Top each of 4 pieces with 1 ham slice and 2 cheese slices (trim cheese and ham to be slightly smaller than veal slices). Top with remaining veal slices and press edges together to seal. Dip in flour, then in a mixture of the egg and milk, and last in the bread crumbs.
  • Melt butter in 12-inch skillet. Add meat and cook, over medium heat, about 10 minutes or until golden brown, turning once.
  • Remove to warm platter. If desired, deglaze pan with some white wine and pour over meat. Garnish with water cress.
