How to Make Grandma's Veal Stew

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook 4 slices of bacon until crispy. Remove bacon and set aside, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease. Add 2 tablespoons of butter to the pot and melt.
  2. Add 1 large chopped onion and 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms to the pot. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Remove onion and mushroom mixture and set aside with the bacon.
  3. Add 1.5 pounds of cubed veal to the pot and brown on all sides over medium-high heat. This will take about 8-10 minutes.
  4. Return the bacon, onion, and mushroom mixture to the pot. Add 4 cups of beef broth or water and bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour, or until the veal is very tender.
  6. Stir in 1/2 cup of sour cream. Do not boil.
  7. Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika and serve hot.
