How to make Veal with Mushroom Sauce
Prepare the mushrooms
- Step 1
Fresh Boletus edulis mushrooms are ideal for this recipe, but if they are out of season, you can use dried mushrooms. Rehydrate them before preparing the dish.
Tenderize the veal
- Step 1
Use a meat mallet to gently pound each fillet to make the meat more tender.
Marinate the veal
- Step 1
In a small bowl, combine 2 minced garlic cloves, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Mix well and marinate the fillets for one hour.
Cook the veal
- Step 1
In a large skillet, place the veal fillets along with all the marinade ingredients. Cook over very low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Step 2
After 30 minutes, remove from heat and keep the skillet covered to retain moisture.
Prepare the sauce
- Step 1
In a separate skillet, heat a few tablespoons of oil. Sauté the half onion, sliced into rings, and the finely minced garlic for 5 minutes.
- Step 2
Add the mushrooms, chopped into small pieces, and cook for 10 minutes.
- Step 3
Pour in the hot beef broth and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.
