Step 2:Preheat the oven to 180ºC (350ºF).

Step 3: Peel and wash the potatoes. Add the potatoes and onion cut into pieces to the meat baking dish. Season the potatoes with a teaspoon salt and drizzle the meat and the potatoes with olive oil.

Step 5: Turn off the oven and serve.

RECIPE TIPS

1. If the veal starts to brown too much cover with aluminum foil.

2. We usually roast the veal at 180ºC (350ºF) but, if you lower the temperature to 150ºC (300ºF), despite taking longer to roast, it has the advantage of enhancing the flavors much more and the meat gets more tender.

3. If you have leftovers, store the meat in the fridge in a properly covered container (to prevent the growth of microorganisms). To avoid drying out the meat, do not reheat the food in the oven, reheat it in the microwave.

4. To prevent the meat from drying out, use a meat thermometer to monitor the internal temperature of the veal.
