Wrap the potatoes in aluminum foil and place them in the oven at 170 degrees Celsius for 35 minutes.

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and cover to soften the onions.

In another pan, add three small carrots and four cloves of garlic for the sauce, adjusting quantities based on personal needs.

If using raw veal tongue, cook it in a pressure cooker with five or six cloves of garlic, one whole onion, one bay leaf, and a dozen black peppercorns for about 35 minutes.

After cooking, peel the tongue and slice it into fillets.

Add a tablespoon of flour to the sautéed garlic and onions, then add water to create a sauce.

Blend the sauce with a hand blender after cooking the carrots until tender.

Add cleaned mushrooms to the blended sauce and cook for about 10 minutes.

Once the onions are browned, add them to the sauce after it has been blended.

Coat the tongue fillets in flour and egg, then fry them slowly in a skillet until golden brown.

After frying, add the tongue fillets to the sauce for a couple of minutes to combine flavors.

Prepare the serving plate with roasted potatoes, sautéed mushrooms, and onion sauce.
