--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   4       qt           Hot water
   2       T            Vegetable oil
   1       T            Salt
     3/4   lb           Fresh fettucini (1/2 lb dry)
     1/2   lb           Unsalted butter
   2 1/2   c            Heavy cream
     1/2   t            Cayenne pepper
     3/4   c            + 4 tsp. Parmesan cheese
   1 3/4   c            Very fine dry bread crumbs
   1 1/2   T            Minced fresh parsley
   1 1/2   T            Olive oil
     3/4   t            White pepper
     1/2   t            Onion powder
     1/2   t            Garlic powder
   3                    Eggs
   6                    4 oz slices white veal (note
                        Vegetable oil for pan frying

  NOTE:  You will need 6, 3-1/2 to 4 ounce slices of
  baby white veal, pounded thin for this recipe.
     Place the water, the 2 tablespoons oil and the salt
  in a large pot over high heat; cover and bring to a
  boil.  when water readdds a rolling boil, add small
  amounts of fettucini at a time to the pot, breaking up
  oil patches as you drop it in.  Return to boiling and
  cook oncovered to al dente stage (about 3 minutes if
  fresh pasta, 7 minutes if dry); do not overcook.
   during this cooking time, use a wooden or spagheti
  spoon to left fettucini out of the water by spoonfruls
  and shake strands back into the water.  (It may be an
  old wives' tale, but this procedure seems to enhance
  the pasta's texture.)  Then immediately drain in a
  colander and stop its cooking by running cold water
  over strands (if you used dry pasta, first rinse with
  hot water to wash off starch); after it has cooled
  thoroughly, about 2 to 3 minutes, pour a liberal
  amount of vegetable oil in your hands and toss
  fettucini.  set aside still in the colander.    Melt
  the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat;
  add the cream and cayenne pepper.  Turn the heat to
  medium-high.  with a metal whisk whip the cream
  nmixture constantly as it comes to a boil.  the reduce
  heat and simmer until the sauce has reduced some and
  thickened enough to coat a spoon well, about 7 to 8
  minutes, whisking constantly.  Remove from heat and
  gradually add 3/4 cup of the parmesan, whisking until
  cheese is melted.  Set aside.
     Heat 6 large serving plates in a 250F oven.
  In a shallow pan (cake and pie pans work well) combine
  the bread crumbs, parsley, olive oil, white pepper,
  onion and garlic;, mix well.  In a separate pan beat
  the eggs well, then beat in the remaining 4 teaspoons
  Parmesan.  Soak the veal in the egg mixture for at
  least 5 minutes, being sure to coat it thoroughly.
   Meanwhile, heat 1/4 inch oil to about 400F in a large
  skillett.  Then, just before frying, dredge veal in
  the bread crumbs, coating well and pressing the crumbs
  in with your hands; shake off any excess.  Fry the
  veal in the hot oil until golden brown, about 1 minute
  per side.  Do not crowd.  (Change the oil mid-way
  through frying if the crumbs in the bottom start to
  burn.)  Remove veal to a large platter and set aside.
      Reheat the cheese sauce over medium-high heat,
  whisking frequently. (NOTE:  If butter starts
  separating from the sauce,  whisk in about 1
  tablespoon cream or water.)  Add the fettucini and
  loss until tho9roughly coated and heated through,
  about 1 minute.  Remove from heat and serve
  immediately.    To serve, place a piece of veal on
  each heated serving plate.  roll each portion of
  fettucini onto a large fork and lift onto the plate;
  Top the fettucini with additional sauce from the
  skillet. From Paul Prudhomme's Louisiana Kitchen
