Stuffed Loin of Veal Roasted.
(Filet de Veau farci.)
Bone about five or six pounds of the loin of veal, remove
any unnecessary fat, leaving the kidney if liked, farce it with
herb farce, and sew it up in the shape of a galantine, then
rub it over with dripping, put it in a well-greased paper, and
roast or bake it gently for about two hours, keeping it well
basted; take up, remove the paper, glaze the meat over with
a little warm glaze, and put again to the fire or in the oven
to brown, say for about ten or fifteen minutes, then place it
in a tin with half a pint of cream, and keep it well basted
with this for about fifteen minutes. If cream cannot be used
baste with Espagnol sauce; take up, remove the string, and
fix two or three hatelet skewers in it to keep it in shape;
place it on a hot dish, and pour round it the cream or sauce
that is left in the tin after it has been passed through the
tammy and just boiled up. The veal should be garnished
with little bunches of crisply fried bacon, cut up in little dice
shapes and drained from the fat; hot Veloute sauce to be
handed in a sauceboat.
