This is one of Pippo's most favourite recipes
!
The scaloppine are thin
veal cutlets , lightly floured , quickly sauteed
in frying butter in a large skillet
over pretty high heat . I cut
cutlets into pretty small pieces (3 X
2.5 inches , 7 X 6 cm) .
You can flavour them
in many different ways .Scaloppine with
lemon juice and chopped parsley are well known as "piccata
al verde" ( green piccata).
Prepare veal cutlets , flour
them lightly and let sauté in
frying butter just for a few seconds
(about 10) then turn them , let sauté for
a few seconds more and put them
aside . This procedure is a bit delicate ,
don't overcook them !
Put again in the
skillet a layer of scaloppine , salt them
and sprinkle the Marsala wine over .
A second layer , salt and Marsala (I
put just some more salt than usual
because the dry Marsala is pretty sweet) . Let sauté over pretty high heat
turning the scaloppine from time to
time until the wine is evaporated , it
takes just a minute . The Marsala
wine gives to the scaloppine a
dark golden color and a wonderful
taste .
