Instructions

1. Blanch the tomatoes

   Drop the whole tomatoes into boiling water for 30 seconds, then immediately transfer them to ice water to stop cooking and make peeling easier.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: 100°C

2. Peel and cut the tomatoes

   Remove the skin, discard the seeds, keep the juice, then dice the flesh.

   Time: PT5M

3. Prepare the vegetables

   Peel the carrots and cut them into large pieces. Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes. Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth (no soaking).

   Time: PT5M

4. Sear the veal

   Heat the grape seed oil in the sauté pan over very high heat. Add the veal in batches so as not to overcrowd the pan and brown it quickly without boiling.

   Time: PT10M

   Temperature: 200°C

5. Coat with flour

   Sprinkle the flour evenly over the browned veal pieces and toss to coat well.

   Time: PT2M

6. Finish in the oven

   Transfer the pan (or its contents into an oven‑proof dish) into a preheated oven at 180°C for 5 minutes to finish browning the veal.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 180°C

7. Cook the pearl onions

   In a small saucepan, melt the butter, add the pearl onions, a pinch of sugar, salt and just enough water to lightly cover. Simmer over medium heat until the water evaporates and the onions are tender and lightly caramelized.

   Time: PT15M

   Temperature: Medium

8. Add garlic and white onion

   Stir in the crushed garlic and finely chopped white onion into the onion pot, sauté for 3 minutes without excessive browning.

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: Medium

9. Deglaze

   Pour the dry white wine (or water) into the saucepan to deglaze, scraping the fond.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: Medium

10. Add tomatoes and stock

    Stir in the diced tomatoes, the reserved juice, the veal stock, water if needed and the tomato concentrate. Mix well.

    Time: PT5M

    Temperature: Medium

11. Add carrots (and potatoes)

    Drop the carrot pieces (and potato cubes if desired) into the pot.

    Time: PT2M

12. Simmer gently

    Reduce heat to minimum, partially cover and let simmer for 1h30, stirring occasionally and adjusting seasoning midway.

    Time: PT1H30M

    Temperature: Low

13. Sauté the mushrooms

    In a very hot pan, sauté the mushrooms with a drizzle of oil until they are nicely browned and slightly caramelized.

    Time: PT5M

    Temperature: High

14. Finish the sauce and garnish

    Check the sauce consistency, add the sautéed mushrooms, adjust salt/pepper and sprinkle with chopped parsley.

    Time: PT5M

15. Serve

    Place the Marengo veal sauté on a serving dish, accompany with steamed potatoes or rice, and enjoy immediately.
