Veal and Mushroom Stew

It’s is teeming with tender chunks of veal braised in a rich, creamy sauce studded with mushrooms and potatoes. Pure yum.

I love the earthy flavors of mushrooms and I even sneak a little extra umami in this veal stew with a squeeze of anchovy paste.

INGREDIENTS

– olive oil – AP flour  – boneless veal shoulder – unsalted butter – onion – garlic – anchovy paste – soy sauce – sugar – dry white wine – whole milk – chicken stock – fresh thyme – baby potatoes – mushrooms – Kosher salt – black pepper

Heat the oil in a large heavy bottomed pot or dutch oven until hot but not smoking. Toss the veal with salt, pepper, and 2 Tbsp flour and add to the pan.
