Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices fully cooked ham
  • 1 lb boneless veal leg top round steak cut 1/4 inch thick
  • 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs
  • 1 tbsp snipped parsley
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 beaten egg
  • 3 tbsp margarine or butter

Instructions 

  • Cut ham into strips. Cut veal into 4 pieces. With a meat mallet, lb each veal piece to 1/8-inch thickness. Place some ham and cheese in center of each veal piece. Fold in sides, then overlap ends, forming bundles. Secure with wooden picks. Combine bread crumbs, parsley, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Roll meat bundles in flour, egg, then crumb mixture. In a large skillet melt margarine. Cook meat bundles over medium heat for 14 to 17 minutes or till golden brown, turning occasionally. (Reduce heat to medium-low if browning too quickly.)
  • Oven directions:
  • Prepare meat bundles as above. In a large skillet brown meat bundles in melted margarine for 5 minutes. Transfer to a 12 x 7-1/2 x 2-inch baking dish. Bake in a 400° oven for 18 to 20 minutes or till done.
