Warm Veal with Tuna Sauce is a variation of a classic Italian dish made with veal and tuna sauce. In this version, the veal is baked with a marinade of dry white wine, carrot, celery, and spices, making it even more succulent and flavorful. The tuna sauce, made with tuna in oil, salted anchovies, lemon, and pickled gherkins, gives the dish a fresh and delicate taste. Perfect to serve as an appetizer or main course during a special lunch or dinner.
