Veal Orloff

Veal Orloff

Veal Prince Orloff, Veal Prince Orlov, Veal Orloff, or Veal Orlov (Russian: Телятина Орлов "Telyátina Orlóv") is a 19th century dish of Franco-Russian cuisine. Created by an Urbain Dubois in the employ of Prince Orloff, former Russian ambassador to France. This dish consists of a braised loin of veal, thinly sliced, filled with a thin layer of pureed mushrooms and onions between each slice, and stacked back. It is then topped with bechamel sauce and cheese and browned in the oven.

"The Mary Tyler Moore Show" used the dish as a plot point in "The Dinner Party", a memorable episode in the sitcom's fourth season (1973). Exactly six servings of veal prince orloff are prepared by the happy homemaker, Sue Ann Nivens (Betty White), for Mary to serve. Not only does a seventh, uninvited guest show up (played by a pre-Fonz Henry Winkler), but also Lou Grant (Ed Asner) takes three servings off the plate and has to put two back. "I'm not as hungry as I thought I was," he growls to the other dinner guests.

On the "Mary Tyler Moore Show" episode, Sue Ann Nivens refers to Julia Child. Veal prince orloff' appears in 'Mastering the Art of French Cooking,' by Julia Child, Louisette Bertholle and Simone Beck.
