Pan Roasted Veal Shoulder image

I found this recipe at Epicurious and tweaked it to fit our tastes. It resulted in unbelievably tender pan roasted veal shoulder with a very rich pan sauce. Do NOT skip the anchovies and don't be afraid, it will not taste anything like fish. It just adds a rich velvety flavor and would not be the same dish without them. I served this for Father's Day dinner with steamed asparagus and angel hair with garlic and parsley. Next time I may add roasting vegetables during the cooking process.

Categories     Veal

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large garlic cloves
5 anchovy fillets or 1 tablespoon anchovy paste
3 lbs boneless veal shoulder, rolled and tied
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup dry white wine
1 cup beef broth
1 cup water
pepper

Steps:

  • Mince garlic with anchovies.
  • If veal is encased in a net, remove net and with kitchen string tie veal crosswise at 1-inch intervals.
  • Pat veal dry and sprinkle with pepper. You may want to hold off on the salt until serving because the anchovies are salty.
  • In a heavy kettle just large enough to hold veal heat oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking and brown veal well, turning it.
  • Transfer veal to a plate.
  • In oil remaining in kettle cook anchovy mixture, stirring, 1 minute.
  • Add wine and boil 1 minute.
  • Return veal to kettle and simmer, partly covered, turning veal every 20 minutes and adding water/broth or even more wine as needed (about 3 tablespoons at a time; do not let liquid completely evaporate,there should always be just enough to keep veal from sticking to kettle), 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until fork tender.
  • Transfer veal to a cutting board and let stand 10 minutes.
  • Skim any fat from liquid in kettle.
  • Add 1/3 cup broth and simmer, scraping up brown bits from bottom and side of kettle, until liquid has consistency of thin gravy.
  • Transfer pan juices to a platter.
  • Cut veal crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices and discard string.
  • Arrange slices over pan juices and spoon sauce over meat.
