Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 8 first course servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup peeled, seeded, and chopped tomatoes
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
2 cups veal reduction
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
8 ounces mascarpone cheese
2 tablespoons chiffonade fresh basil leaves
32 squares fresh pasta (3 by 3 inches) such as wonton wrappers
4 ounces grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Chopped fresh chives, for garnish
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound ground veal
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup finely chopped onions
1 pound assorted exotic mushrooms, cleaned and stemmed
2 tablespoons minced shallots

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan, over medium heat. Season the veal with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Add the veal to the pan and brown, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add the onions and saute for 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the mushrooms have released most of their liquid. Add the shallots and tomatoes and cook for 2 minutes. Add the 2 tablespoons of garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add the veal reduction and bring the liquid up to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 6 to 8 minutes. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the butter and parsley. Set aside and keep warm.
  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. In a mixing bowl, combine the cheese, remaining teaspoon of garlic, remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper and basil. Mix well. Divide the cheese mixture evenly among the centers of each of 16 squares of the fresh pasta. With a little water, lightly wet the edges of the pasta. Place the remaining pasta squares over the cheese. Press the 2 squares of pasta together tightly, then crimp using the tines of a fork to seal the ravioli completely. Place the ravioli in the boiling water, in batches if necessary, and cook until tender, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the water and drain completely.
  • To serve, place 2 ravioli in the center of each shallow bowl. Spoon the stew over the pasta. Garnish with the cheese and chives.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the stew will be. Look for fresh, flavorful mushrooms and tender veal.
  • Brown the veal and mushrooms separately: This will help to develop their flavor and prevent the stew from becoming watery.
  • Use a good quality dry white wine: This will add depth and complexity to the stew.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too much veal and mushrooms to the pot, they will not cook evenly.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour: This will allow the flavors to meld together and the veal to become tender.
  • Serve the stew with mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Veal and mushroom stew is a classic dish that is perfect for a cold winter night. It is hearty, flavorful, and easy to make. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious veal and mushroom stew that your family and friends will love. .
