Ingredients:
2 cupCold water
1 medPotato, peeled, quartered
2 tbspButter
1/4 cupOnions, finely chopped
1 lbsVeal, finely ground
3 tbspBread crumbs, fine dry
1/3 cupCream, heavy
2 tbspWater
1 1/2 tspSalt
1/2 tspWhite pepper
1 Egg
2 tbspParsley, finely chopped
1 tbspCornstarch
1/2 cupLeeks, white only, sliced
-paper thin
8 tbspButter (1 stick)
1/4 cupCream, heavy
Procedures:
1In a 1 to 1 ?quart saucepan, bring the cold water to a boil.
2Add the quartered potato and boil 10 to 15 minutes or until tender.
3Drain and mash with a fork.
4In a small frying pan, melt 2 tb butter.
5When the foam subsides, add the onions and cook 7 or 8 minutes stirring frequently until they are soft and transparent but not brown.
6Scrape the onions into a large mixing bowl and add the mashed potato, ground veal, bread crumbs, cream, water, salt, pepper, egg, parsley and cornstarch.
7Mix well then refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
8Brush a large wooden pastry board (or another hard, smooth surface) with water and pat or roll out the mixture into a 16"x16" square about 1/8" thick.
9Your hands or the rolling pin should be moistened with water to prevent the meat mixture from sticking.
10With a pastry wheel or small, sharp knife, cut the rectangle of meat into 16 squares of 4"x4" each.
11Put a thin layer of leek slices (about 1 ?teaspoons) on each square.
12With the aid of a knife, or better still, an icing spatula, roll up each square, jelly-roll fashion.
13Ideally they should now be chilled but may, if necessary, be cooked immediately.
14Heat 2 tb. butter in a heavy skillet.
15When the foam subsides, add the roulades, 4 at a time, turning them gently with a spatula so that they brown on all sides.
16When they are a rich brown, set them aside on a heated platter in a 200°F oven.
17Repeat the process, adding 2 tb fresh butter for every 4 roulades.
18Pour ?cup heavy cream into the empty pan and boil it rapidly for 3 to 5 minutes, until it thickens, meanwhile scraping up the browned bits in the pan with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
19Taste for seasoning adding salt as needed and pour over roulades.
20If you must, cover the platter with foil and keep warm in a 200°F oven for not more than 15 minutes
