Instructions:
-
Prepare the Veal: Begin by pounding the veal until it is very thin, but be careful not to tear it; it should be about the size of a small plate.
-
Heat the Pan: Heat a pan with vegetable oil over medium-high heat. While the pan heats up, dredge the veal in flour, ensuring it’s evenly coated, and then carefully place it in the pan.
-
Cook the Veal: Cook the veal for about two minutes on each side or until both sides are lightly browned. Once done, remove the veal from the pan and set it aside, keeping it warm.
-
Sauté the Mushrooms: In the same pan, add the button mushrooms and brown them on both sides until they are nicely caramelized.
-
Deglaze with Marsala Wine: Carefully pour the marsala wine into the pan with the mushrooms. Be cautious, as it may cause a brief flame. Allow it to cook for about four to five seconds until the flame subsides and the alcohol evaporates.
-
Add Demi-glace and Butter: Once the flames die down, add the demi-glace to the pan, followed by the butter. Keep adding butter until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
-
Season to Taste: Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper according to your preference.
-
Plate and Serve: To serve, place a generous mound of mashed potatoes on a plate. Top it with the cooked veal cutlet, and then pour the luscious marsala sauce over the entire dish.
Enjoy your homemade Veal Marsala, a delicious taste of Italy right at your table! 🍷🍴
