Preparation

- Lightly flour the meat and shake off the excess flour well
- In a pan, heat ¾ of a spoonful of oil with a sprig of rosemary and the whole garlic
- When the oil is hot, remove and discard the garlic and rosemary
- Brown the escalopes over high heat, turning them on both sides, then salt them and leave them on a plate
- Prepare the splinters of leek and Verona celery
- Clean and peel the celery, clean a piece of white leek.
- With the help of a special mandolin or with a large knife, you must obtain very thin strips about 3 cm long. (see photo).
- Heat a quantity of oil sufficient for frying in a saucepan
- Flour the vegetables, place them in a sieve to remove excess flour and when the oil is hot, fry a little at a time until they start to brown, then drain them with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate with absorbent paper . Salt them lightly
- Take the pan where you browned the meat, turn on the heat (if there is too much oil left in the pan, remove some, leave one or two spoons):
- Wet with a glass of dry wine and let it evaporate, stirring with a wooden spoon to dissolve the flour remaining on the bottom of the pan
- Add the porcini sauce and when it comes to the boil, put the escalopes back in and let them season again but without overcooking them
- Taste the sauce, add salt,
- Arrange the escalopes on plates well seasoned with the cooking sauce and accompany them with the hot and crunchy leek slivers

Suggestions

For the escalopes, use a tender cut of beef
The recipe uses slices of scottona which are very tender and slightly tinged with fat. Topside of beef or codon is also fine, ask your butcher for advice
Place them in the pan when the oil is hot otherwise the meat tends to toughen
Fry the splinters at the last moment so you can serve them hot and crunchy
