ITALIAN VEAL STEW

Steps:

• In a large sauce pan, brown veal cubes in olive oil over medium high heat.
• Reduce heat to medium and add parsley, rosemary, garlic, salt, and pepper.
• Saute until garlic is tender but not brown, about 5 minutes.
• Add tomatoes.
• Simmer for about 15 minutes.
• Add potatoes and simmer for about 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender.

VEAL STEW WITH DILL

Steps:

• Put the veal in a broad skillet over high heat; sear, undisturbed, for about 4 minutes, or until the underside is nicely browned (don't worry if not all of the pieces brown). Stir, then add the shallots and potatoes. Cook for another couple of minutes, then add salt, pepper, and 1 1/2 cups of water. Stir, scraping the bottom if necessary to loosen any bits of meat that may have stuck. Turn the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes, stirring once or twice during that period.
• Uncover and add the carrots if you're using them; stir once, recover, and simmer for about 15 minutes more, or until the veal and potatoes are tender.
• Uncover and add the peas and scallions if you like. Raise the heat if necessary to boil away excess liquid. Taste and adjust the seasoning, then serve, garnished with the dill and accompanied by a lemon wedge.

VEAL WITH DILL SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a heavy three-quart casserole. Add the veal and sear it until it is lightly browned. Remove the veal from the pan.
• Add the shallots and garlic and cook over low heat until they are soft but not brown. Add the wine and stock and cook over high heat, scraping the pan. Cook until the liquid is reduced by about half.
• Return the veal to the pan, season with salt and pepper and baste with the pan juices. Stir in the cream and half the dill. Cover and simmer for about one hour, until the veal is fork tender. If, toward the end of cooking, too much of the liquid in the pan has evaporated, add a little more stock or wine.
• Check seasonings again and stir in the remaining dill and the lemon juice. Serve at once.
