  • Cook the mushrooms together with the lemon juice in a small, covered pot. Heat up slowly, cook for 2 minutes. Pour the liquid into a cup. Add some spices to the mushrooms, keep them warm.
  • Melt the margarine in a frying-pan. Add the onions, saute. Increase the heat, add the meat, add some water and roast gently. Turn the meat occasionally to make sure it gets roasted evenly. Remove the meat.

  • Sprinkle additional salt, pepper and ½ teaspoon paprika on the meat. Put meat into the sauce, increase the heat, but do not cook. Add the mushrooms. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve.

  1. I absolutely love veal, and this sounded wonderful! Couldn't wait to try it. Maybe I over did the paprika, although I did measure it...but something was just a bit off. Enjoyed it regardless. The veal was tender and delicious.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I didn't start cooking until my early 20's, even though I come from a family of accomplished and admired home cooks. While I grew up watching my Italian grandmother in the kitchen, I remained uninterested in trying anything on my own. As a young lady, I was known for being particularly ignorant in the kitchen, with no idea how to even make a hot dog! All this changed, however, when I got engaged. I realized it was time to let my inherent talents out of the bag. At the time, the New York Times had a weekly column called The 60-Minute Gourmet by Pierre Franey. Each week, I would follow these recipes diligently, and taught myself to cook that way. From there, I began to read cookbooks and consult with relatives on family recipes. At my ripe old age now, I feel I know enough to put together a very pleasing meal and have become accomplished in my own right. Having an Irish father and an Italian mother, I'm glad I inherited the cooking gene (and the drinking one too!). One thing I have learned is that simpler is always better! I always believe cooking fills a need to nurture and show love. After being widowed fairly young and living alone with my dog and cats, I stopped cooking for awhile, since I really had no one to cook for. I made care packages for my grown son occasionally, and like to cook weekly for my boyfriend, so I feel like I am truly back in the saddle!!
