Veal Roast With Fava Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix salt, dried thyme, and white pepper in small bowl. Rub 1 tablespoon oil over roast. Rub salt mixture over roast. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add meat and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer roast to plate.
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil, shallots, and fennel to same pot. Sauté until vegetables are golden brown, stirring frequently and scraping up browned bits, about 12 minutes. Add Vin Santo; boil 3 minutes. Return veal to pot, nestling into vegetables, and top with some of vegetables. Cover; roast until instant-read thermometer inserted into center of veal registers 165°F, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
• Transfer veal to platter. Mix fresh thyme into vegetables. Season cooking liquid with salt and pepper. Spoon vegetables and cooking liquid around roast.

Steps:

• Prepare sachet d'epice Place the aromatics on a large piece of cheesecloth, gather the edges to enclose, and tie with kitchen twine.
• Blanch favas Prepare an ice-water bath in a large bowl for shocking the beans (which stops the cooking and preserves their color). Drop the fava beans into a large pot of boiling salted water until bright green and just tender, about 2 minutes. Lift out the peas with a slotted spoon (or a spider) and plunge into the ice-water bath. Once they are thoroughly cool, drain and peel off the tough outer skins.
• Cook veal and artichokes Pour the wine into a large saucepan and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 1 minute (to cook off some of the alcohol). Add veal, water, and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil and skim the foam from the surface with a slotted spoon (veal produces more surface foam than other meats, so this step is important). Add herb sachet and reduce heat to a low simmer. Cook, uncovered, 1 hour, skimming the surface frequently. Add artichokes to the pot, submerging them partially in the liquid. Cook until the artichokes and veal are tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, 20 to 30 minutes more, adding peas during last 3 minutes of cooking. Remove the sachet and squeeze out the liquid into the pot. Then strain the contents of the pot through a fine sieve into a bowl or large measuring cup, reserving veal, artichokes, and peas. You should have about 3 cups liquid.
• Thicken sauce Wipe out the pot and return it to the stove. First, make a roux by melting the butter over medium heat until foamy, swirling the pan to melt evenly, then whisk in the flour and cook, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Next, make a velouté by whisking the reserved liquid into the roux and bringing to a boil (again, always whisking), cooking until the mixture is smooth. (Classic culinary teaching would have you whisk cold stock into a hot roux, or vice versa, to prevent the sauce from forming lumps, but that isn't necessary as long as you whisk diligently.) Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.
• Make liaison (optional) Whisk together the egg yolk, if using, and heavy cream, then temper by gradually whisking in a cup of the velouté (this will allow the egg to gently heat so it doesn't curdle). Now whisk everything back into the pot and cook over gentle heat until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon, 1 to 2 minutes. (If you prefer, omit the egg and whisk the cream directly into the velouté in the pan.)
• Serve Return the veal, artichokes, and peas to the pot along with the peeled favas and cook gently to heat through, stirring. Season with salt and pepper. Add lemon juice and chopped dill or parsley to taste.
• Ingredients
• This stew is best made in spring when all the ingredients are in season, but in a pinch, substitute frozen peas, fava beans, and even artichoke hearts, adding all at the end, just to heat through.
• BLANQUETTE DE VEAU
• Omit fava beans, peas, and artichokes. Once the veal has cooked for 1 hour and 20 minutes, melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 8 ounces small white button mushrooms and 6 ounces blanched and peeled pearl onions (page 31), tossing to combine. Pour in 1/4 cup stock from the stew and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are cooked through and the stock has reduced to a syrupy glaze, about 9 minutes. Finish with the liaison, then return veal to the pot along with the vegetables.

Steps:

• Place roast on rack of a roasting pan; insert meat thermometer. Combine oil, lemon juice, mustard, nutmeg, and garlic, brush over roast, reserving remaining mixture. Bake at 325F for 2 hours.
• Remove from oven and remove veal from roasting pan, remove rack, drain fat, and place veal directly in pan. Place vegetables around veal. Pour remaining oil mixture and chicken broth over veal. Bake an additional 30 minutes or until thermometer measures 170°F.
• Arrange meat on aplatter, and spoon vegetables around meat. Serve with pan drippings.

Steps:

• Spike the veal with a few strips of prosciutto.
• Melt the butter and the rest of the ham in a saucepan.
• Dust the veal with flour and brown evenly on all sides.
• Warm up the milk and pour 2 cups of milk over the meat, then salt to taste.
• Lower the heat, cover, and when the milk has been absorbed, add more. Continue to do so as the milk gets absorbed. The meat will be properly cooked when the milk is finished.
• Remove the meat and slice it evenly. Place on heated platter, pour reduced cooking juices over and serve.
• That's it!

Steps:

• Sauté pancetta in heavy large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Using slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels. Reduce heat to low, add onions, sprinkle with sugar and sauté until brown and tender, about 25 minutes. Transfer onions to bowl. Add broth, beans and arrowroot to skillet. Simmer until beans are tender, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer beans to onions in bowl. Cook liquid until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Add 1/4 cup Marsala and marjoram; return onions and beans to liquid. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead.)
• Preheat barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush veal with remaining 2 tablespoons Marsala. Season with salt and pepper. Grill until just medium, approximately 3 minutes per side. Transfer veal to plates.
• Meanwhile, simmer sauce 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper; stir in pancetta. Spoon sauce over veal and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Season the roast with salt, pepper and rosemary.
• Heat the olive oil in a dutch oven, when the oil is hot add the roast and brown well on all sides.
• Remove the veal from the dutch oven and put aside until needed.
• Put the sweet onion and garlic in dutch oven and saute 5 minutes.
• Add the wine and cook for 5 more minutes.
• Next add the veal, carrotes, tomatoes, parsley, basil and oregano to the dutch oven.
• Bring to a boil, lower heat, cover and simmer 1 - 1 1/2 hours or until veal is tender.
• Remove veal from dutch oven, set aside and keep warm.
• Puree the cooking liquid and then return to the dutch oven.
• Add the fava beans, pearl onions and baby carrots.
• Cook on medium heat for about 15 minutes.
• Next combine the cornstarch with 1 tbsp cold water and stir into the vegetables, cook until sauce thickens (3 minutes).
• Slice the veal and serve with the vegetables and gravy.

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drizzle garlic with 1 teaspoon oil. Wrap in parchment, then in foil. Bake until soft, about 30 minutes. Squeeze garlic from skins. Mash until smooth.
• Whisk together the remaining ingredients with 1 tablespoon of the roasted garlic and remaining 2 teaspoons oil.
• Make the salad: Prepare an ice-water bath. Cook beans in a large pot of boiling water for 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer beans to ice-water bath. Let cool completely, and remove with the slotted spoon. Cook corn in same pot for 1 minute, and drain in a colander. Peel thin shells off beans.
• Toss cucumber, onion, parsley, feta, beans, and corn with the vinaigrette.
