Preparation Lay the veal slices on a board and salt and pepper them. On each veal slice, lay a slice of ham or lean bacon and one or two leaves of sage. Roll them up and fix them with a tooth pick.

Put the oil in a large saucepan to fit in all the rolls. Braise on both sides. Add the wine and then cook for 5 minutes. Arrange the meat rolls on a serving dish adding the gravy over them. Serve hot.
 
The Chef's tips Aprilia Merlot is a 12° red, soft, velvety dry wine to be served at 18°C.
 
Curiosity These rolls should be so tender that they literally jump into your mouth, (the meaning of saltimbocca)
