- Preparation: 15 min
- Cooking: 75 min
- Makes: 1 serving (795 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: High protein
- Contains: beef, celery, dairy, gluten, meat, mustard
Ingredients
- 150 g Veal lungs, raw
- 350 g Water
- 50 g Onions, raw
- 40 g Carrots, raw
- 20 g Celery, raw
- 15 g Butter, unsalted
- 12 g Flour, all-purpose
- 10 g Mustard
- 8 g Capers
- 8 g Lemon juice
- 0.5 g Marjoram, dried
- 1 g Salt
- 0.5 g Black pepper
- 20 g Cream, heavy
- 40 g Bread rolls, hard
- 70 g Veal heart, raw
Method
- Finely dice the onion, carrot and celery, and rinse the calf's lung and heart well (a butcher can order them if they aren't on display).
- Put the lung and heart into a pot with the water and half of the onion, carrot and celery. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 1 hour, partly covered, until tender.
- Strain the pot, keeping both the broth and the meat; discard the softened vegetables. Once cool enough to handle, trim off any tubes and gristle and cut the lung and heart into thin strips.
- Melt the butter in a clean pot and cook the remaining onion over medium heat for 5 minutes until soft. Stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes to make a light roux.
- Whisk in about 250 ml of the hot reserved broth and simmer for 8 minutes, stirring, until the sauce lightly coats the back of a spoon.
- Stir the mustard, capers, lemon juice, marjoram, cream, salt and pepper into the sauce, then return the meat to the pot and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Serve hot with the bread roll alongside for mopping up the sauce.
