VEAL FILLET with BAROLO APPLE JAM and COURGETTES

FILETTO DI VITELLO con CONFETTURA DI MELE AL BAROLO e ZUCCHINE - Casa Ferrari

Slow-cooked veal fillet , accompanied by crispy zucchini and a sweet Barolo apple jam . This dish combines the tenderness of the meat with the freshness of the vegetables, with the aromatic touch of the jam adding a delicious contrast.

Ingredients for 2-3 servings:

  • 2 veal fillets (about 150-200g each)
  • 2 courgettes
  • 2 tablespoons of Ferrari Barolo Apple Jam
  • Ferrari extra virgin olive oil to taste
  • Butter to taste
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh thyme and rosemary to taste

Preparation:

  • Cooking the veal fillet: Clean the veal fillets and portion them into vacuum bags. Steam cook the fillets at 58°C (135°F) for one hour to ensure they're tender and juicy. Alternatively, you can cook them in a pot of hot water, maintaining a constant temperature and stirring occasionally to avoid sudden changes in temperature.
  • Prepare the zucchini: While the veal is cooking, wash and slice the zucchini into thin rounds. Blanch them in salted water for 2-3 minutes, until they remain crunchy but soft. Drain and set aside.
  • Brown the veal: Once the veal is cooked, remove it from the vacuum and place it in a pan with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil , a little butter , and fresh rosemary and thyme . Brown the fillet for about 4 minutes, turning it on all sides to achieve a golden, flavorful crust.
  • Plating: Arrange the blanched courgettes on the plate as a base, arrange the veal fillet on top and add a spoonful of Barolo apple jam over the meat for a sweet and aromatic touch.
