    List of Ingredients




    Makes 4 to 6 Servings

    2 pound boned leg of veal rolled and secured with string
    3 tablespoons lemon juice
    4 cups water
    1 cup white wine
    1 onion
    3 cloves garlic
    1 bay leaf
    2 stalks celery with leaves, cut into 1 inch pieces
    2 carrots, scraped and cut into 1 inch pieces
    6 sprigs parsley
    1 tablespoon salt
    6 peppercorns
    1 cup tuna fish
    4 anchovy fillets
    ¼ cup olive oil
    ¼ cup vegetable oil
    6 tablespoons lemon juice
    ¼ cup drained capers

    Recipe



    Rub the veal with the lemon juice and set aside. Combine the water, wine, onion, cloves, bay leaf, celery, carrots, parsley, salt and peppercorns in a large kettle and bring slowly to a boil. Add the veal, making sure that it is completely covered by the liquid, and again bring to a boil. Cover the pan and simmer for about 1 ½ hours. Remove the meat from the broth, and cool it thoroughly.
    In the top of a blender, combine the tuna fish, anchovies, olive oil, vegetable oil, lemon juice, and capers. Blend until smooth. After the meat has cooled, slice it very thin and arrange in a shallow dish. Pour the sauce over it and chill overnight. At serving time, garnish with lemon roses and fresh parsley.
