The exact translation for the name of this recipe is “Veal roast variegated”. I have to admit that in the 20 years I have been in this country I have never heard the word variegated. I did look it up in the dictionary and it makes sense to me now, but I’m still not sure if I can use on food. There are 4 more recipes that come out of this roast leftovers. I have try 2 of them (I didn’t have that many leftovers) When I make it again (and I definitely will) I will try the other 2 and update my comments. I hope you enjoy all my new Italian discoveries. Update#1 : with leftover you can make Insalata Di Arrosto Al Peperoncino. and Involtini Alla Paprica (Rolled Roast With Paprika) Ingredients:
