Directions

  1. Melt the finely chopped onion in the saucepan without letting it brown.
  2. Add the salted veal cubes, but not too large, to the pan over medium heat, so that the meat cooks slowly. ≈ 3 min
  3. Once the meat is browned, add a generous amount of minced garlic. Once the juices have evaporated, pour in white wine until it covers the meat. ≈ 3 min
  4. Once the wine has reduced, add the peeled tomatoes and simmer over low heat until the meat is tender.
