Veal Roast Blanquette Food

BLANQUETTE OF VEAL

Steps:

• Pour the stock and wine into a large saucepan, then add all the vegetables except the mushrooms. Add the garlic and rosemary and bring to the boil, then simmer, uncovered, for 10 mins.
• Trim veal of any excess fat and cut into large bite-size cubes. Add to pan with the mushrooms. Return to a simmer, season well, then cook for 20 mins until meat is just tender; allow longer if it's not. The stew can be cooled and chilled or frozen at this stage.
• When ready to serve, beat together the yolks and cream. Return the stew to a simmer, stir in the horseradish or mustard, briskly mix in yolks and cream, then stir until it starts to thicken slightly. Take care not to overheat or the mixture will curdle. Stir in the butter, remove pan from the heat, then mix in the parsley, lemon zest and juice. Check the seasoning again.
• Meanwhile, boil tagliatelle according to pack instructions - about 3 mins for fresh pasta, up to 10 mins for dried. Drain and toss with a little butter. Make into a 'barrel' of pasta (see above right) or simply divide between six warmed plates. Spoon the Blanquette of veal on top and serve.
• Make a 'barrel' of tagliatelle Gordon's way: Pick up a few strands of pasta, digging a carving fork into the pot 3-4 times. Lift up the pasta so the strands hang free and press against the side of the pan. Then, holding with your (clean) fingers, start to twist the pasta into a barrel shape, pushing back against the pan side once or twice to neaten. When all the strands are wound, up-end the fork intothe centre of a plate and gently push the pasta off.

VEAL ROAST BLANQUETTE

Steps:

• In an 8 quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat, brown roast on all sides. Add thyme and 2 cups of water. Heat to boiling, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 30 minutes.
• To the pot, add carrots, potatoes and onions. Cover, and simmer 30 minutes. Toss in mushrooms. Cover, and simmer 15 minutes, or until vegetables and veal are tender. Remove roast and vegetables, and keep warm.
• In a cup, stir flour and 2 tablespoons water until blended with no lumps. Gradually stir into liquid in Dutch oven. Cook, stirring constantly, until gravy is slightly thickened. Stir in peas, and heat through.
• In a small bowl, beat egg yolks. Stir in a small amount of hot gravy. Slowly pour egg yolk mixture back into gravy, whisking until thickened. DO NOT BOIL! To serve, pour some gravy over the veal and vegetables. Serve remaining gravy in a gravy boat.

ELEGANT BRAISED LAMB SHANK DINNER RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Season the lamb shanks all over with salt and pepper.
• Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
• Sear 2 lamb shanks at a time until a dark brown crust forms on one side, 3-5 minutes. Sear the other sides of the meat until evenly browned. Remove the shanks from the pan and set aside. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pan.
• Add the minced carrots, onion, celery, and minced garlic to the pot. Season with salt and pepper, and cook until the vegetables are deeply caramelized, 15-20 minutes.
• Add the tomato paste and cook until it browns and is aromatic, 5 minutes.
• Add the red wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to release the flavorful browned bits stuck to the bottom. Cook until the wine reduces by half and thickens slightly, 3 minutes.
• Add the chicken stock, orange juice, lemon juice, rosemary, thyme, and bay leaves. Stir and bring to a boil.
• Return the lamb shanks to the Dutch oven, cover, and place in the oven for 2 hours, turning the shanks halfway through, until the lamb is tender and the braising liquid has thickened.
• About halfway through the lamb cooking time, add the oblique-cut carrots, Brussels sprouts, red pearl onions, and whole garlic cloves to a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine. Roast in the oven for 1 hour, or until the vegetables are tender.
• Right after the potatoes finish boiling, drain and transfer to a large bowl. Season with plenty of salt and a bit of white pepper, and mash the potatoes until as smooth as possible.
• Fold in the butter, sour cream, and heavy cream until smooth and light.
• Make the citrus gremolata: In a small bowl, combine the parsley, lemon zest, flaky salt, garlic, chives, horseradish, and orange zest.
• To serve, scoop mashed potatoes onto a plate. Add roasted vegetables and a lamb shank. Top with the braising liquid and citrus gremolata.
• Enjoy!

BLANQUETTE OF VEAL

Steps:

• Cover the veal with cold water to "blanch". Drain and rinse the veal.
• Boil about 2 cups of water in a saucepan and then add the pearl onions briefly to scald them. Drain and slip skins from the pearl onions and set aside.
• In a large saucepot, combine the veal with the stock and simmer covered over medium-low heat until the veal is tender, about 1 1/2 hours. After the veal has been simmering about 30 minutes, add the sachet d'epices. Then uncover the pot to allow the stock to reduce to intensify the flavor.
• Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a small pot and gradually add the flour to make a white roux. (Do not allow the roux to brown.) Remove and discard the sachet from the stew. Add the roux to the stew pot and simmer until thickened.
• In another pan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and gently cook the pearl onions and mushrooms until they are tender. To this pan, add the lemon juice and salt and pepper, to taste, and set aside.
• The heat under the blanquette (stew) must be such that the stew is just below a boil. In a small pot, whisk together the egg yolks and cream (known as a liaison) and temper by heating gently and gradually. (You are only heating it. Do not boil. Do not cook.) Add the liaison to the blanquette. Add the reserved pearl onions and mushrooms. Adjust salt and pepper, to taste, if needed.

VEAL BLANQUETTE

Steps:

• Prepare bouquet garni (herbs and aromatics in cheesecloth) and set aside.
• Place all stew meat on a large plate and season with salt and pepper. Dredge the veal in flour.
• Add 2 tbsp of butter to a large dutch oven and working in small batches, lightly brown the veal (roughly 2 min per side). Add additional tbsp of butter and continue to lightly brown the veal. After each batch, remove veal and set aside on a fresh plate until all veal is complete. *You may need to add 1-2 tbsp of vegetable oil to help with the browning process.
• Add 1/4 cup of white wine to deglaze (about 3 minutes).
• Add onion and saute in the wine until translucent.
• Add 1 cup of wine and reduce for 15 minutes.
• Add veal back into the onion / wine mixture, add chicken stock and bouquet garni. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for 1 1/2 hours.
• Meanwhile, take a medium size saute pan to begin the mushrooms.
• Add 2 tbsp of butter to the pan and begin saute of mushrooms. Add salt & pepper to taste.
• After 5-7 minutes, add 3 tablespoons of white wine and let simmer for a few minutes. Remove mushrooms with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• At this point you can save the mushroom wine broth for another dish or cook other vegetables or discard (I usually saute some aspargus in the sauce and serve on the side).
• Remove cover of stew, skim fat off. Simmer uncovered for another 20-30 minutes. You may need to add a flour slurry to thicken at this point (chicken stock and flour mixture).
• Discard bouquet garni.
• Before serving, add the mushrooms and heavy cream to the stew and let simmer for 2-3 minutes.
• Serve in bowls, garnished with parsely & some lemon zest.
• Enjoy with rustic bread for dipping!
