Lay each veal escalope out and season lightly with salt and pepper; place a couple of sage leaves on the meat.
Thinly slice the cheese and place on top of the sage and finally a slice of the prosciutto around the escalope encasing the sage and cheese.
Heat a non stick frying pan with a little olive oil, when the oil is hot add the veal to the pan and cook on a high heat for 1-2 minutes then turn over, the prosciutto should be golden and crispy.
Add the butter to the pan, cook for another 30-40 seconds, squeeze a few drops of lemon over the veal.

Gently pick the leaves from the witlof and place in a bowl with the rocket. Dress the salad with 90 ml of the walnut dressing and divide between 6 plates.
