White Veal Schnitzels

By Starbuck

     (White veal is the meat from young calves. It is lean with a delicate flavour, and should not be overcooked or served with foods that have very strong flavours.)

• 1 or 2 white veal schnitzels per serving
• flour for coating meat
• 1 Tbsp butter
• 1 Tbsp oil
• ¼ cup slice mushrooms
• 2 Tbsp flour
• ¼ (60ml. / 2 fl. oz) cup white wine
• ¼ (60ml. / 2 fl. oz) chicken stock
• 1 Tbsp capers (optional)
• 2 Tbsp cream

     Lightly flour the schnitzels and cook in the oil and butter in a pan over a moderate heat until very lightly browned on both sides. Remove the meat from the pan.

     Add the mushrooms and 2 tspns flour to the drippings in the pan, and cook until straw coloured. Stir in the wine, chicken stock, capers and cream and stir until smooth, diluting with extra wine or water if desired. Pour over the veal and serve. J
