891. VEAL CUTLETS, A LA PERIGORD.
TRIM the cutlets neatly, season with pepper and salt, then dip them
in some whipped white of eggs, and afterwards in some black truffles
chopped very fine; flatten this on securely with the blade of a knife,
and place them in clarified butter in a sautapan in circular order.
Twenty minutes before sending to table, fry the cutlets over a gentle
fire on both sides, until done through,—taking care that the chopped
truffles do not burn; when done, drain them on a piece of paper
glaze, and dish them up, fill the centre with scallops of red tongue
and truffles; pour some Périgueux sauce (No. 23), and serve.
