2 1/2 pounds well trimmed veal shoulder, cut in 2-inch pieces
Salt and black pepper
1/2 cup olive oil, or as needed
1/2 pound mushrooms, coarsely chopped
12 to 15 small white onions
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 tablespoons flour
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 shallots, minced
1 cup dry white wine
1 cup hot veal stock or hot water

About 12 slices toasted round of French bread rubbed with garlic
Minced parsley for garnish

Steps:

  • Dry veal pieces with paper towel, then sprinkle lightly on all sides with salt and pepper.
  • Heat olive oil in heavy Dutch oven or casserole. When it begins to smoke add layer of veal. Pieces should not touch each other. Brown over moderate heat, turning pieces so they brown evenly. When first batch is brown, remove and reserve. Add second batch and continue until brown. Add more oil if needed.

  • Return mushrooms and onions to pan and cook for 30 minutes or until meat and onion are tender. Adjust seasonings, remove bay leaf and parsley, and skim fat from surface of sauce. If sauce seems thin, or if color needs brightening, stir in tomato puree and simmer for 5 minutes.

8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, caps thinly sliced
6 tablespoons brandy
1 cup beef stock or 1 cup canned beef broth
1 cup chicken stock or 1 cup canned low sodium chicken broth
1 cup whipping cream
all-purpose flour
6 veal cutlets, each pounded to 1/4-inch thickness
24 uncooked shrimp, peeled, deveined

  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; sauté until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add mushrooms; sauté until beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat; add brandy. Carefully ignite; when flames subside, return to heat. Simmer until brandy is almost evaporated, about 1 minute. Add beef stock and chicken stock; boil 5 minutes. Add cream; boil until sauce coats spoon, about 14 minutes. Pour sauce into bowl; clean skillet.
  • Place flour in shallow dish. Sprinkle veal cutlets with salt and pepper; coat with flour. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in same heavy large skillet over high heat. Add 3 veal cutlets to skillet and sauté until brown and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer veal to plate. Repeat with remaining veal cutlets. Cover veal to keep warm.
  • Melt remaining butter in same skillet. Add shrimp; sauté until just opaque in center, about 3 minutes. Pour sauce into skillet; stir until heated through, scraping up any browned bits. Divide veal among plates. Top with shrimp and sauce.

Tips:

1. Choosing Quality Veal: Start with high-quality and fresh veal. Look for cuts that are well-marbled with fine, even fat. 2. Pounding and Cutting: Pounding the veal cutlets tenderizes them and helps flatten them evenly. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin covered with plastic wrap. For scaloppine, slice the veal against the grain into thin, even pieces. 3. Seasoning: Season the veal generously with salt, pepper, and other seasonings like garlic powder, paprika, or Italian seasoning. Marinating the veal in a mixture of herbs, spices, and olive oil for 30 minutes to overnight enhances the flavor. 4. Dredging: Lightly dredge the veal cutlets in flour before cooking. This helps create a crispy, golden-brown crust. For scaloppine, coat them in flour, egg wash, and bread crumbs for a flavorful and crunchy coating. 5. Cooking Temperature: Maintain medium-high heat when cooking the veal. This ensures a quick sear that locks in the juices and prevents the meat from becoming tough. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the veal reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium. 6. Basting: Baste the veal with melted butter or oil during cooking. This helps keep it moist and flavorful. You can also add herbs, garlic, or lemon zest to the basting liquid for extra flavor. 7. Resting the Veal: Allow the cooked veal to rest for a few minutes before serving. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Veal sauté is a classic and versatile dish that can be prepared in various ways. By following these tips and techniques, you can create delicious and succulent veal dishes that are perfect for any occasion. Experiment with different seasonings, sauces, and accompaniments to find your favorite combinations. Whether you prefer classic scaloppine, flavorful Marsala, or a creamy Piccata, veal sauté is sure to impress your family and friends. So, grab some fresh veal and start cooking!
