Paneed Veal and Fettucini
4 qt Hot water 2 T Vegetable oil 1 T Salt 3/4 lb Fresh fettucini (1/2 lb dry) 1/2 lb Unsalted butter 2 1/2 c Heavy cream 1/2 t Cayenne pepper 3/4 c + 4 tsp. Parmesan cheese 1 3/4 c Very fine dry bread crumbs 1 1/2 T Minced fresh parsley 1 1/2 T Olive oil 3/4 t White pepper 1/2 t Onion powder 1/2 t Garlic powder 3 Eggs 6 4 oz slices white veal (note Vegetable oil for pan frying NOTE: You will need 6, 3-1/2 to 4 ounce slices of baby white veal, pounded thin for this recipe. Place the water, the 2 tablespoons oil and the salt in a large pot over high heat; cover and bring to a boil. when water readdds a rolling boil, add small amounts of fettucini at a time to the pot, breaking up oil patches as you drop it in. Return to boiling and cook oncovered to al dente stage (about 3 minutes if fresh pasta, 7 minutes if dry); do not overcook. during this cooking time, use a wooden or spagheti spoon to left fettucini out of the water by spoonfruls and shake strands back into the water. (It may be an old wives` tale, but this procedure seems to enhance the pasta`s texture.) Then immediately drain in a colander and stop its cooking by running cold water over strands (if you used dry pasta, first rinse with hot water to wash off starch); after it has cooled thoroughly, about 2 to 3 minutes, pour a liberal amount of vegetable oil in your hands and toss fettucini. set aside still in the colander. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat; add the cream and cayenne pepper. Turn the heat to medium-high. with a metal whisk whip the cream nmixture constantly as it comes to a boil. the reduce heat and simmer until the sauce has reduced some and thickened enough to coat a spoon well, about 7 to 8 minutes, whisking constantly. Remove from heat and gradually add 3/4 cup of the parmesan, whisking until cheese is melted. Set aside. Heat 6 large serving plates in a 250F oven. In a shallow pan (cake and pie pans work well) combine the bread crumbs, parsley, olive oil, white pepper, onion and garlic;, mix well. In a separate pan beat the eggs well, then beat in the remaining 4 teaspoons Parmesan. Soak the veal in the egg mixture for at least 5 minutes, being sure to coat it thoroughly. Meanwhile, heat 1/4 inch oil to about 400F in a large skillett. Then, just before frying, dredge veal in the bread crumbs, coating well and pressing the crumbs in with your hands; shake off any excess. Fry the veal in the hot oil until golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Do not crowd. (Change the oil mid-way through frying if the crumbs in the bottom start to burn.) Remove veal to a large platter and set aside. Reheat the cheese sauce over medium-high heat, whisking frequently. (NOTE: If butter starts separating from the sauce, whisk in about 1 tablespoon cream or water.) Add the fettucini and loss until tho9roughly coated and heated through, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and serve immediately. To serve, place a piece of veal on each heated serving plate. roll each portion of fettucini onto a large fork and lift onto the plate; Top the fettucini with additional sauce from the skillet.
