How to prepare Veal bites with lemon
To prepare the veal bites with lemon, start by making the lemon sauce. Pour the milk into a pan along with the grated zest 1 and the juice of one lemon 2. Add the potato starch 3.
Place over moderate heat, until it almost reaches boiling. Stir to prevent lumps from forming 4. Turn off the heat and stir occasionally to prevent a skin from forming on the surface. Meanwhile, place the veal bites in a bowl, add the flour 5 and mix. Ensure all the meat is coated with the flour, then remove the excess. Heat the oil in a pan 6.
Add the veal bites 7 and brown them well. Deglaze with white wine 8 and let all the alcohol evaporate over high heat. Season with salt 9.
Flavor with pepper 10, and cook covered over low heat for 8-10 minutes. Finally, add the lemon sauce 11 and cook for another couple of minutes. Stir continuously to prevent the cream from sticking to the bottom; you should achieve a thick and velvety consistency. The veal bites with lemon are ready, plate and serve with fresh chopped parsley 12!
