1 (4 pound) leg of veal, boned, rolled and tied
1 (2 ounce) can anchovy fillets, drained
3 cloves garlic, sliced
2 cups dry white wine

2 medium onions, quartered
2 medium carrots, cut up
4 teaspoons instant chicken bouillon
8 black peppercorns
4 sprigs parsley
2 bay leaves
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
Tuna sauce

Make 10 to 12 deep cuts down length of meat with small knife. Cut 3 anchovy fillets into 3/4-inch pieces. Cover and refrigerate remaining anchovies for Tuna Sauce. Stuff a piece of anchovy and a slice of garlic into each cut. Place meat, wine, celery, onions, carrots, bouillon, peppercorns, 4 sprigs parsley, the bay leaves, salt, thyme and enough water to cover in Dutch oven. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer until meat is tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Skim foam if necessary. Remove from heat; cool.
Remove meat from broth; strain and reserve 1/4 cup broth for Tuna Sauce. Prepare Tuna Sauce. Pat meat dry; cut into thin slices. Spoon a thin layer of Tuna Sauce into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Arrange meat slices in sauce. Spoon remaining sauce over meat slices. Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours.
