I hadn't had veal in forever, but on our honeymoon in Italy, hubby and I had it a few times, and I promised him I'd source some for dinner at home. Regarding the ethics of veal, we bought ours from Waitrose whose meat-raising practices are excellent Waitrose veal
Ingredients
Veal escalope
Flour
Olive oil
2 garlic cloves
1 courgette
1 red pepper
1 aubergine
fresh thyme and rosemary (2-3 sprigs of each)
sea salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Chop all the veg and garlic finely (I whizzed mine in the food processor bit of my kMix). Heat some olive oil in a heavy based pan (I use a shallow casserole dish on the hob) and chuck it all in with the thyme and rosemary. Stir well, season and cook for 5 minutes. Turn the hob off (if gas) or take off the hob (if electric), cover and leave to keep warm.
In a frying pan, coat the veal escalopes in flour. Heat some oil in a frying pan. Cook the escalopes for about 1 1/2 minutes each side. Serve on top of the vegetables. If you need some carbs, some crusty Italian bread is yummy.
This has to be cooked when you want to eat it. However, the prep is so simple, it makes a quick entertaining option if you have guests in the week.
