ROASTED VEAL CHOPS WITH MADEIRA AND PARSNIPS
A favourite recipe of mine from LCBO Food and Drink, Autumn 2000. The Madeira brings out the sweetness of the parsnips and complements the mildly flavoured veal. This recipe is easily reduced to make a meal for 2 or 4 people. Serve with a green vegetable or salad. Veal chops are usually large enough to consider one portion per person. With other accompaniments, this course is sensible and does not allow for discomfort from overeating. I served this recipe as a main course, Christmas dinner, and it was a welcome change from the traditional turkey, ham, etc. The first two courses were lime sorbet and a sherried beef broth with sauteed scallion stems. Dessert was a mixture of berries and flavoured whipped cream followed by a tray of mixed cheeses. Selected wines could be a fine old Madeira; Valpolicella; or your favourite Chardonnay.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality veal chops. Look for chops that are a light pink color with a fine grain. Avoid chops that are dark red or have a coarse grain, as these will be tough.
- Don't overcook the chops. Veal chops are best cooked to a medium-rare or medium doneness. Overcooking will make them tough and dry.
- Use a good quality Madeira wine. Madeira wine is a fortified wine that adds a rich, nutty flavor to the sauce. Use a dry or semi-dry Madeira for this recipe.
- Roast the parsnips until they are tender and caramelized. Parsnips are a great side dish for veal chops. Roast them in a hot oven until they are tender and slightly browned.
- Serve the veal chops with the Madeira sauce and roasted parsnips. This dish is best served immediately after cooking.
Conclusion:
This recipe for Roasted Veal Chops with Madeira and Parsnips is a delicious and elegant main course that is perfect for a special occasion.
