This was a delicious. Served over egg noodles and used a dab of creme fraiche instead of the heavy cream.
I would not recommend this recipe. The proportions are not accurate, if you leave with so little liquid, it will burn. 1.5 h overcooks the veal (it’s not beef!). There are other much nicer veal stew recipes.
Great stew, I salted the veal before cooking and cut back on the mustard
