Veal Tips

Mushroom-Brandy Sauce

Butterspätzle

Side Salad

Method

Veal Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Veal

    In a bowl, season the veal strips with salt and black pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sear the Veal

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned veal and sear for about 2-3 minutes or until browned. Remove the veal from the skillet and set aside.

Mushroom-Brandy Sauce

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking until the mushrooms are soft.

  2. 4

    Deglaze the Pan

    Pour in the brandy and allow it to reduce for about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 5

    Create the Sauce

    Add the beef broth and heavy cream to the skillet. Stir in the flour to thicken the sauce and let it simmer for about 5 minutes. Finally, add the cooked veal back into the skillet and mix well.

  4. 6

    Finish the Sauce

    Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Butterspätzle Preparation

  1. 7

    Prepare the Dough

    In a bowl, combine all-purpose flour, eggs, milk, and salt. Mix until a smooth batter forms.

  2. 8

    Cook the Spätzle

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Use a spätzle maker or a colander to press the batter into the boiling water. Cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  3. 9

    Finish with Butter

    In a skillet, melt butter and toss the cooked spätzle in the butter until coated.

Side Salad Preparation

  1. 10

    Prepare the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine mixed salad greens, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced cucumber.

  2. 11

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss well before serving.
