Veal With Orange Sauce
From fridge to table, a really quick mid-week recipe with only a few ingredients that are readily on hand: veal cooked in an orange and wine sauce. adapted from 'colour me healthy' by rita erlich and dr alice murkies and an earlier recipe of my own. when i came across this recipe in 'colour me healthy', i dug out a recipe i'd had in my very first hand-written recipe book from the early seventies when so many of the influences on australian cuisine were only just beginning to make a ripple and so many of our recipes were still basically derived from english recipes. although i suffered english school meals as a child, there really is a lot more to english - and earlier australian - cuisine than chops and three veg! i am, therefore, posting this as both an english and an australian recipe.
