Ingredient Substitution Guide

Preparation

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Step 2
Heat two tablespoons of olive oil and the butter in a skillet. Add one of the diced onions and the garlic. Cook until translucent. Remove from heat and cool.
Step 3
In a bowl, combine the veal chunks, tuna, capers, lime juice, eggs, salt, pepper, cooked onion and garlic and mix well.
Step 4
Place the roast on a cutting board. Unroll and spread the stuffing evenly over the meat, leaving a one-inch border all around.
Step 5
Carefully roll the roast, tightly wrapping it in a double thickness of cheesecloth, and tie it at one-and-a-half- inch intervals.
Step 6
In a large pot, add four tablespoons of olive oil and the remaining diced onion, carrots and celery, cook for five minutes, add the roast and stock, bring to a boil, cover and place in the oven for one and a half to two hours.
Step 7
Allow to cool to room temperature, then place, tightly covered, in the refrigerator overnight.
Step 8
When ready to serve, slice into quarter-inch slices.
