This stew is made with relatively inexpensive veal shoulder, browned on the stove top. Then it's mixed with several greens and braised in the oven. Serve with steamed white rice. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1 tablespoon oil |
3 lbs veal shoulder, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes |
salt & freshly ground black pepper |
1 cup dry white wine |
5 cups fresh spinach, chopped |
5 cups fresh sorrel, chopped |
1 head romaine lettuce, chopped |
1 bunch watercress, chopped |
1 leek, finely chopped |
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped |
1/4 cup fresh tarragon, finely chopped |
1/4 cup fresh chives, finely chopped |
1 cup creme fraiche or 1 cup sour cream |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
2. In a large oven safe casserole, melt butter and oil over medium high heat.
3. Season veal with salt and pepper and add to casserole; cook until well browned on all sides, about 12 minutes.
4. Add wine, cover with parchment paper, then casserole lid, and place in oven until meat is nearly tender, about 1 hour.
5. Add spinach, sorrel, romaine, watercress, leek, parsley, tarragon, chives and creme fraiche; stir and season with salt and pepper.
