  • 40 ml cognac
  • 150 ml veal stock
  • 150 ml whipping cream

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Wash, trim and briefly wilt the spinach in salted water. Rinse and drain. Squeeze out excess moisture and roughly chop.

    Preheat the oven to 120°C (250°F).

    Roll the cutlets into tight roulades. Optionally secure with a wooden skewer, then coat in flour. Shake off excess flour. Fry in hot oil until golden brown on all sides. Remove from pan and finish cooking in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes.
