Steps

  1. Step 1

    For the proposed tomato sauce, soften the onion in olive oil for 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Add garlic for 30 seconds, then tomato, the sauce's half teaspoon salt, quarter teaspoon black pepper and paprika.

  3. Step 3

    Simmer uncovered 15–20 minutes until spoonable, adding a little water only if it catches. Measure about 240 mL for the dish.

  4. Step 4

    Heat oven to 180 °C and grease a medium baking dish with the 10 g dish butter. Season cooked veal and rice with the separate half teaspoon salt.

  5. Step 5

    Layer veal, rice and proposed tomato sauce repeatedly, ending with sauce. Cover with fine breadcrumbs and the 25 g melted topping butter.

  6. Step 6

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