The spiced veal roast baked in the oven is a variation of another recipe I often prepare, the porchetta-style veal, spiced slightly differently.
This recipe, like many other roast recipes on this blog, is truly exceptional.
They have the advantage that they can be seasoned in advance, wrapped in parchment paper and foil, and put in the fridge even the day before for the next day, and actually, if you do so, it will be excellent because it can absorb the flavors well.
Of course, for cooking, you should allow at least 3 hours for a good result.
So what are you waiting for?
Follow my recipe and with the help of the photos, you too can make the spiced veal roast baked in the oven.

Preparation of the Spiced Veal Roast Baked in the Oven
Let’s start making the spiced veal roast by taking the veal round, which looks like a cover, spreading it out, and seasoning it with a mixture of salt, pepper, crushed garlic, and rosemary, leaving a small part aside.
Roll it up on itself from the smaller side as shown in the photo, then season the outside with the small part of the seasoning that was set aside for the inside.
On a board, weave the slices of bacon as shown in the photo, or create it as you like.
Place the roast on top of the bacon slices and wrap the bacon around the roast carefully.
Tie with kitchen string…
…..then wrap it in a sheet of parchment paper and then in foil, sealing well.
Place the roast in a deep baking dish and bake at 392°F (200°C) for about 1 and ½ hours, remove the wrappings and continue to bake for about 30-45 minutes.
It should be golden brown and well cooked.
Once cooking is complete, remove the string, slice, and serve.
