Ok, here;s a recipe that I improvised from Rouxbe (http://rouxbe.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&type=recipes&q=chicken+saltimbocca)
It’s much easier to cook recipes from cookbooks and websites now : 1) Ingredients are now more easily available and 2) The authors make sure they provide the Indian name, or a recipe to make something (so there are recipes within recipes)… it still took much longer than I expected. But it was surprisingly fun… layering stuff, pounding it to flatten… interesting aromas and flavours, and lots of cheese and meat!! What else does one need?
I substituted the cambozola cheese with Gorgonzola. I went to Godrej Nature’s Basket and didn’t find Cambozola (very sad), then googled and found out I could use Gorgonzola (http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/Dictionary/C/Cambozola-cheese-5786.aspx) … so i did. I managed all the other ingredients fine. But forgot the unsalted butter. So I went ahead with normal butter, and went easy on the salt. I used normal white wine, didn’t bother with a cooking wine etc. And for the sauce, i didn’t follow exact measurements… there may have been a little more wine! (HIC!) 🙂 Just tried to get the consistency right.
Try it… it’s quite easy… and the prosciutto makes it taste absolutely fantastic!!!! Here’s two pics….
Always a big fan of this dish especially with veal or pork loin 🙂
Hi, Still to try it that way! But thanks for the idea 🙂
It looks great, I love that you put your own spin on it. That’s what sharing recipes and cooking is all about.
Thanks Steve. It was fun… was trying to make something different to surprise my hubby!! 🙂
