If you don't want to use veal, use a cut of sirloin, or a nice bit of pork. This cooks up quite fast and makes a delicious sauce.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs veal, cut into serving pieces
1 onion, peeled, left whole
2 tablespoons butter
1 ounce capers
1 teaspoon crumbled dried basil
1/3 cup pitted black olives
3 tablespoons ouzo
2 tablespoons concentrated tomato juice
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
paprika
Directions:
1. Brown meat in butter; add onion, season and pour ouzo over.
2. Add basil, capers, tomato juice and paprika to taste.
3. Season to taste.
4. Add a little water, about 1 cup, and simmer, covered 25 minutes (you may need to add a bit more water near the end).
5. Add olives and simmer 5-6 minutes longer.
6. Remove onion, puree, and re-add to sauce.
