Ingredients : Serves 4 |
4 veal escalope, flattened
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
60 ml/4 tbsp Madeira
100 g/4 oz/0.5 cup unsalted (sweet) butter
1 shallot, finely chopped

Method :
Season the veal lightly with salt and pepper. Lay it in a flat dish and
spoon the Madeira over. Leave to marinate for 2 hours. Remove the meat and
pat dry on kitchen paper (paper towels). Melt the butter and fry (saute)
the veal for about 4 minutes, turning once. Transfer the veal to a warm
serving dish and keep warm. Pour off a little butter from the pan and
chill. Add the shallot to the remaining butter in the pan and fry until
soft, then add the mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and
cook them to a pulp. Pour in the marinade, bring to the boil and simmer
until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly. Stir in the cream and
paprika and season to taste. When the sauce is creamy, remove it from the
heat and stir in the chilled butter, shaking the pan till the sauce is
glossy. Pour over the escalope and serve immediately. |
