Add a delicious dish to your repertoire with our simple Saltimbocca recipe. Once you’ve thinned out your meat, season with pepper, place a sage leaf over each, and wrap in Parma ham. Heat Bertolli with Butter and Olive Oil in a frying pan, before adding escalopes; once they’re done, rest them on a warm plate. To make the tasty sauce, reduce Masala in the frying pan until slightly syrupy. Serve with pasta, or potatoes and seasonal veg.
