Steps:
- 1 Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in an ovenproof 4-to-5-quart Dutch oven over medium heat
- 2 Add the onion and salt to taste
- 3 Adjust the heat so the onion cooks but does not brown
- 4 Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until the onion is soft
- 5 Meanwhile, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a large, shallow nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat
- 6 Working in batches, add a portion of mushrooms, filling but not crowding the pan
- 7 Stir-fry the mushrooms just until they start to brown
- 8 Transfer to the pot with the onion; it's okay if the onion is still cooking
- 9 Repeat, adding oil as needed, until all of the mushrooms have been cooked and transferred to the Dutch oven
- 10 Working in batches, add the veal to the (now-empty) pan and cook for a few minutes, turning the pieces as needed to promote even browning and adding oil to the pan as needed
- 11 While the meat is cooking, stir the flour into the onion-mushroom mixture in the Dutch oven so the flour is absorbed
- 12 Add the broth and season with salt and pepper to taste
- 13 Adjust the heat so the mixture is barely bubbling
- 14 Transfer the veal pieces to the mushroom-onion mixture as they are done
- 15 Preheat the oven to 325 degrees
- 16 When all of the meat has been browned, keep the saute pan over medium-high heat and add the Marsala to deglaze the pan
- 17 Use a spatula to dislodge any bits from the bottom of the pan, then pour the wine and the bits into the stew in the Dutch oven, stirring to incorporate
- 18 Add water as needed so the meat and mushrooms are barely submerged
- 19 Cover the pot and transfer to the oven
- 20 Cook the stew for about 2 hours; the veal should be fork-tender
- 21 Serve immediately, garnished with the chopped parsley
- 22 Or cool, transfer to a container with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate for up to 4 days

Steps:
- In a large skillet heat the oil. When almost smoking, add the onions and garlic over medium-low heat until the onions have wilted, about 8 minutes. Add the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Raise heat to high and saute until mushrooms are tender and all the liquid has evaporated. Remove pan from heat and pour in Marsala. Return pan to stove and allow wine to evaporate, about 3 minutes. Add chicken broth and simmer for 1/2 hour until the sauce has reduced by half. Add heavy cream and mix well. Take the pan off the heat and add the fresh herbs and Parmesan and mix thoroughly.

VEAL RAGOUT
In Holland a meat ragout is a common dish. It is a creamy sauce served over cooked rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes. Sometimes it's made with mushrooms, or other vegetables, but often there's meat in the sauce. This version is made with veal. It's very good.
