Directions

Step 1

Heat a saucepan, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, brown the meat pieces, deglaze with white wine and add the vegetables. When everything is nicely browned, add the organic tomato passata and simmer on very low heat until the meat is completely tender. Season with salt to taste. Let everything cool down, puree everything through a masher and then strain it through a fine sieve. Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well.

Step 2

Mix the finely diced vegetables with extra virgin olive oil and finely chopped parsley. Season with salt.

Step 3

Mix the minced veal with lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil for the tartare. Season with salt to taste.

Step 4

Cook the tagliolini in plenty of salted water, drain them and stir them into the pan with the sauce. Remove from the heat and drizzle extra virgin olive oil over the top.

Step 5

Place the tagliolini in the centre of a flat plate and top with the veal tartare and sprinkle the vegetable gremolata.
