200 g (3/4 cup) cheese spread Le Grand Duc Roulé (with herb, pepper or vegetable flavourings) at room temperature (doesn’t melt during cooking)*
200 g (1/2 bag) spinach, washed and stemmed
Butter in sufficient quantity
300 ml (1 1/4 cup) demi-glace sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
Spread milk-fed veal cutlets over a work space so that the edges are overlapping.
Cover the cutlets with a thin layer of cheese and 4 rows of spinach.
Roll cutlets while ensuring that everything stays in place; this can be done with a sushi or plastic wrap. Tie with string starting in the middle and twist the string in such a way as to form a cylinder.
Slice meat in between strings to produce the rosettes. To make this easier, you can firm up the piece of meat by placing it in the freezer for 5 minutes.
In a frying pan, melt butter at high heat and cook the rosettes (as soon as juice appears, turn the rosettes and repeat procedure, then remove; the meat will be pink).
Deglaze frying pan with demi-glace sauce and season with salt and pepper. Let simmer for 5 minutes. Put sauce through a cheese cloth before serving.
Remove strings, coat the bottom of plates with sauce and serve with linguini and sautéed vegetables.
