Braised Veal Breast with Potato-and-Onion StuffingRomulo Yanes

While this impressive roast cooks, it slowly transfers flavorful juices to the moist potato-and-onion stuffing tucked inside. Once the breast has been cut from the bone, it yields beautiful slices ideal for drizzling with the lush pan sauce.

Cooks' notes:

•Be sure to ask your butcher for the back (or meatier) portion of the veal breast. (You will need a 2- to 3-inch thickness of meat to be able to make a pocket.)
•Stuffing can be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
•Veal can be braised 2 days ahead and cooled, uncovered, then chilled, covered. Reheat, covered, over moderate heat.
