Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    For the proposed tomato sauce, soften the onion in olive oil for 5 minutes; add garlic for 30 seconds, then tomato, salt, pepper and paprika. Simmer uncovered 15–20 minutes until spoonable, adding a little water only if it catches. Measure about 240 mL for the dish.

  2. Step 2

    Heat oven to 180 °C and butter a medium baking dish. Season cooked veal and rice lightly.

  3. Step 3

    Layer veal, rice and proposed tomato sauce repeatedly, ending with sauce. Cover with fine breadcrumbs and melted butter.

  4. Step 4

    Bake about 20–25 minutes until the centre is thoroughly hot and the crumb top golden. Serve with separately cooked peas if desired.
