Instructions
1
Begin by coating the diced veal pieces evenly in plain flour, ensuring all surfaces are covered.
2
In a large, heavy-bottomed pan, heat the sunflower oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the floured veal cubes and brown them on all sides for about 5-7 minutes. This will add depth of flavor to the stew.
3
Remove the browned veal from the pan and set it aside. In the same pan, add the sliced brown onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
4
Sprinkle the lemon juice over the sautéed onions and stir to combine, allowing the acidity to brighten the flavors.
5
Gradually pour in the water and white wine, stirring continuously to deglaze the pan and incorporate any flavorful bits stuck to the bottom.
6
Return the browned veal to the pan, then stir in the fresh dill. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
7
Cover and simmer the stew for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
8
After 45 minutes, add the sliced mushrooms and frozen peas to the stew. Season with ground black pepper to taste. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 15 minutes, uncovered, until the vegetables are tender and the stew has thickened slightly.
