Method

1. Stud the meat with garlic cloves by inserting them with a knife.
2. Sprinkle salt and paprika over it, then place it in a pot on the stove and brown it.
3. Add butter until it melts, then add the vegetables and aromatics and cover the fillet with hot water.
4. Leave the veal fillet roast over medium heat until it's only half cooked.
5. Remove the fillet from the water and place it in a roasting pan with the vegetables of your choice for roasting; set the boiled vegetables aside to use when making the sauce.
6. Turn the oven to top heat only (broil) and occasionally baste the roast with its own broth.

9. Add the roast poaching broth and salt and stir.
10. Puree the boiled vegetables that were set aside and add them as well.
