Vizirske mahmudije
Ingredients: 200 g of veal leg, 50 g of rice, 60 g of mushrooms, 60 g of tomatoes, 0.02 l of oil, 20 g of butter, spices as needed.
Preparation procedure:
Cut four veal steaks from the veal leg, each weight 50 grams, soften those with a kitchen hammer and form medallions. Roll them on one side into flour and put in a pan on very little oil. Fry on both sides. When they are almost fried, add some flour, continue to fry, and pour water.
In the second pan on olive oil, fry the finely chopped mushrooms; add cooked rice, butter and parmesan. Make risotto ball, then place mahmudija on it, add mushrooms and tomatoes over it. Pour the sauce from the veal and decorate it.
Note: Mahmudija means Turkish golden coin; the title of the dish can be roughly translated as ‘vizier’s coins’, most likely called like this because veal medallions reminded of golden money.
