NEW ORLEANS GRILLADES AND GRITS

Steps:

• Combine the 1/2 cup flour, salt and one teaspoon of Creole Seasoning in a shallow bowl. Dredge the pieces of beef in the flour, shaking off the excess and transfer to a large plate.
• Heat the oil in a stainless steel skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Place the beef in the skillet, being careful not to overcrowd, and fry on both sides until browned. Transfer the beef to a plate.
• Saute the onions in the skillet until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for another minute. Add the bell pepper and celery and saute until soft, about 5-7 minutes. Add the tomatoes and saute for another 4-5 minutes, scraping up any browned bits in the skillet. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl.
• Melt the 5 tablespoons of butter or olive in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the 1/3 cup flour and whisk constantly until the mixture is a rich brown, about 4 minutes. Add the beef broth and red wine vinegar, whisking continually until the mixture is smooth and thickened.
• Return the vegetables to the skillet and add the Creole Seasoning and bay leaves. Return the beef to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 1/2 hours or until the meat is very tender, stirring occasionally.Stir in the parsley and simmer for another 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaves.
• Serve the grillades and gravy ladled over hot grits (see below).
• For the Grits: In a 5-quart pot over medium-high heat, bring the milk and salt to a simmer, stirring regularly to prevent the milk from burning.
• Slowly add the grits in a steady stream, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Add the salt. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally until the grits are thick and tender.

GRILLADES & GRITS

Steps:

• For Grillades: Combine flour and Creole seasoning in a medium bowl. Set aside. Rinse and pat dry veal cutlets, then season with salt and pepper. Dredge cutlets in the seasoned flour and shake off excess. Do not discard flour. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat until it is 360 degrees. You can test the temperature by dropping a piece of rice into the oil. If it pops right back up, it's ready. Fry the cutlets, several at a time, until golden brown on both sides. Be careful not to overcrowd the skillet. Remove cutlets from skillet and continue to cook in batches until all the veal has been browned. When all of the veal has been cooked, reduce the heat to medium-high. Add onions and cook, stirring throughout, until they are a deep, rich color, about 20 minutes. Add the celery, bell pepper and garlic, reduce the heat to moderate, and continue cooking and stirring for 5 minutes or until vegetables are cooked down. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the seasoned flour into the skillet and stir to thicken the vegetable mixture. Increase heat to high, stir in the tomatoes and beef stock, and cook until it comes to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and stir the thyme, pepper flakes and Worcestershire sauce into the vegetables. Add bay leaf. Add the veal cutlets, cover, and simmer until the veal is fork tender, about 45 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and hot sauce. Serve over grits. For Grits: In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups salted water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium. Slowly whisk in grits, stirring constantly, 3-5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and cook 40-50 minutes, stirring occasionally so they don't scorch on the bottom of the pan. When grits are cooked, stir in 2 tablespoons butter and mascarpone and remove from stove. Cover pot and wrap in a towel to keep grits warm.
