Veal Stew With Rosemary And Peas Recipes

FRENCH VEAL STEW

Steps:

• Add the butter to a large pot and place it over medium-high heat until melted. Then add the whole unpeeled garlic cloves, bay leaves and rosemary.
• Stir well and cook the herbs for a minute until fragrant. Now add the diced veal to the pot.
• Stir and let the veal brown lightly on all sides. Then add the warm chicken stock and white wine. Season with a pinch of pepper and salt.
• Cover the pot and turn the heat low. Simmer the veal for about 90 minutes. Stir regularly. In the end the stock and wine should have reduced by at least half. In the meantime peel the carrots and clean the mushrooms. Slice them both up. After 90 minutes of cooking the veal, add the sliced carrots.
• Cook for 5 minutes. In the meantime pour the cream in a high cup and add the egg yolks.
• Beat the yolks and the cream. Then add this to the veal stew.
• Stir well. Cook for another 5 minutes. The sauce should start to thicken a little. Then add the sliced mushrooms.
• Cook the stew for another 5 minutes. Then check the seasoning and add extra pepper and salt to taste. Also add the chopped parsley.
• Scoop the veal stew onto deep plates. Serve hot.

VEAL STEW

Steps:

• In 5-quart Dutch oven, over medium heat, heat butter and oil. Add veal cubes (half at a time); cook over medium heat until cubes are well browned on all sides.
• As they brown, remove to a bowl. Takes about 15-20 minutes in all.
• Return meat to Dutch oven. Add garlic, marjoram, salt, and pepper, stirring until well blended with meat.
• Sprinkle flour over meat, stirring until well blended.
• Gradually stir in chicken broth; bring to boiling, stirring. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, 1 hour.
• Add carrot, celery, and potato; simmer, covered, about 20 to 25 minutes, or until vegetables are almost tender.
• Add frozen peas; simmer, covered, 10 minutes, or until meat and vegetables are tender. Sprinkle with parsley.

VEAL STEW

Steps:

• In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions and garlic; cook and stir until onion is tender.
• Add meat to the pot, and brown evenly.
• Stir in tomato sauce and white wine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 1 1/2 hours, or until tender.

BLUEPRINT FOR VEAL STEW

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
• In an oven proof casserole, heat, until very hot, half of the oil. In small batches brown the veal cubes on all sides. When one batch is done, add more oil if you need to and continue to brown until all the veal is done. Discard the fat in the casserole and replace it with the butter. Add the carrot, onion and celery, cover and simmer 5 minutes or until onions are translucent. Add the white wine and boil down for a minute or until alcohol has evaporated. Return the veal cubes to the casserole with garlic and add just enough broth to barely cover the veal. Bring the liquid to a boil, add the bouquet garni, put a buttered piece of parchment or brown paper on top of the meat, then a lid on the casserole and set in the oven. Cook for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours or until the meat is tender.
• Remove casserole from the oven and strain the contents through a sieve and the liquid into another saucepan; discard bouquet garni. Divide solids into 2 batches. Degrease the liquid and boil it down until reduced to 3 cups. Remove 1 1/2 cups of the liquid and add it to half of the meat. Return the other half of the veal to the remaining liquid. Season with salt and pepper. Thicken with beurre manie if you wish. Serve with rice, polenta or potatoes; garnish with parsley.

VEAL STEW WITH SNOW PEAS

Steps:

• Heat two tablespoons of the olive oil in a heavy casserole. Add the onion, carrots and celery and saute over low heat until soft but not brown. Add the garlic and continue to saute for a minute or two. Remove from heat.
• Dry the veal on paper toweling. Add the remaining oil to a heavy skillet and add as much of the veal as you can at a time without crowding. Brown the veal pieces over medium- high heat. As they are browned, place them over the vegetables in the casserole. When the veal is all browned, add the wine to the skillet and cook, scraping the skillet until all the particles are dissolved.
• Pour the contents of the skillet over the meat and vegetables in the casserole, add the tomatoes, bay leaf, thyme, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Bring the casserole to a simmer, cover and simmer for 1 1/2 hours, until the veal is tender. Stir in the lemon juice and recheck the seasonings.
• Add the snow peas and cook just long enough for the snow peas to turn bright green and become tender, about five minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and scallions and serve.

VEAL STEW WITH ROSEMARY AND PEAS

Steps:

• 1 In a large Dutch oven or other deep, heavy pot with a tight-fitting lid, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add just enough of the veal pieces as will fit comfortably in the pot in a single layer. Cook, turning frequently, until browned on all sides, about 15 minutes. Transfer the browned pieces to a dish. Repeat with the remaining veal. When browned, return the meat to the pot. 2 Stir in the onion, garlic, and rosemary. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Add the wine and bring to a simmer. Add the broth. Cover the pan and lower the heat. Simmer the veal, stirring occasionally, over low heat for 1 hour or until the meat is tender when pierced with a fork. Add a little water if the stew seems dry. 3 Stir in the peas. Cover and cook 10 minutes more. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve hot. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone.

MUSTARDY VEAL STEW

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy casserole. Brown mushrooms over high heat, then remove from casserole.
• Add the veal to the casserole, brown it lightly, then stir in the onion and garlic. Saute another couple of minutes, then add the stock, wine, rosemary and thyme. Return the mushrooms to the casserole.
• Cover and cook over low heat until the veal is tender, about one-and-a-half hours. Mix the mustard and cream together and stir it in. Cook uncovered about 10 minutes, until the sauce has thickened somewhat. Stir in the capers, then season with salt and pepper. Cook a few minutes longer, transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with parsley.

VEAL STEW WITH ARTICHOKE HEARTS, FAVA BEANS, AND PEAS

Steps:

• Place the aromatics on a large piece of cheesecloth, gather the edges to enclose, and tie with kitchen twine.
• Prepare an ice-water bath in a large bowl for shocking the beans (which stops the cooking and preserves their color). Drop the fava beans into a large pot of boiling salted water until bright green and just tender, about 2 minutes. Lift out the beans with a slotted spoon (or a spider) and plunge into the ice-water bath. Once they are thoroughly cool, drain and peel off the tough outer skins.
• Pour the wine into a large saucepan and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 1 minute (to cook off some of the alcohol). Add veal, water, and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil and skim the foam from the surface with a slotted spoon (veal produces more surface foam than other meats, so this step is important). Add herb sachet and reduce heat to a low simmer. Cook, uncovered, 1 hour, skimming the surface frequently. Add artichoke hearts to the pot, submerging them partially in the liquid. Cook until the artichokes and veal are tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, 20 to 25 minutes more, adding peas during the last 3 minutes of cooking. Remove the sachet and squeeze out the liquid into the pot. Then strain the contents of the pot through a fine sieve into a bowl or large measuring cup, reserving veal, artichokes, and peas. You should have about 3 cups liquid.
• Wipe out the pot and return it to the stove. First, make a roux by melting the butter over medium heat until foamy, swirling the pan to melt evenly, then whisk in the flour and cook, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Next, make a veloute by whisking the reserved liquid into the roux and bringing to a boil (again, always whisking), cooking until the mixture is smooth. (Classic culinary teaching would have you whisk cold stock into a hot roux, or vice versa, to prevent the sauce from forming lumps, but that isn't necessary as long as you whisk diligently.) Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.
• Whisk together the egg yolk, if using, and heavy cream, then temper by gradually whisking in a cup of the veloute (this will allow the egg to gently heat so it doesn't curdle). Now whisk everything back into the pot and cook over gentle heat until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon, 1 to 2 minutes. (If you prefer, omit the egg and whisk the cream directly into the veloute in the pan.)
• Return the veal, artichokes, and peas to the pot along with the peeled favas and cook gently to heat through, stirring. Add lemon juice. Serve garnished with dill and parsley.
