Preparation

  1. Heat the butter and oil in a heavy three-quart casserole. Add the veal and sear it until it is lightly browned. Remove the veal from the pan.
  2. Add the shallots and garlic and cook over low heat until they are soft but not brown. Add the wine and stock and cook over high heat, scraping the pan. Cook until the liquid is reduced by about half.
  3. Return the veal to the pan, season with salt and pepper and baste with the pan juices. Stir in the cream and half the dill. Cover and simmer for about one hour, until the veal is fork tender. If, toward the end of cooking, too much of the liquid in the pan has evaporated, add a little more stock or wine.
  4. Check seasonings again and stir in the remaining dill and the lemon juice. Serve at once.
