Zürcher Geschnetzeltes (Dairy-Free Version)
A classic Swiss dish of sliced veal in a creamy mushroom sauce, adapted to be dairy-free using coconut cream. Served with rice or potatoes.
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Veal
- 1 pound Mushrooms
- 1 Onion
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1/2 cup Dry white wine
- 1/2 cup Vegetable broth
- 1 can (13.5 oz) Coconut cream
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
- 1Prepare your ingredients: slice the 1.5 pounds of veal into thin strips, slice the 1 pound of mushrooms, and finely chop the 1 onion and 2 cloves of garlic.
- 2Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat (400°F / 200°C). Add the prepared veal strips and sauté for 3-5 minutes, until browned on all sides. Remove the veal from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.
- 3Add the chopped onion and garlic to the same skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they have softened and become fragrant.
- 4Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet with the onions and garlic. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have released their liquid and started to brown.
- 5Pour in the 1/2 cup of dry white wine and 1/2 cup of vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer, using a spoon to scrape up any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the skillet. Let it simmer for 2 minutes.
- 6In a small bowl, whisk together the 1 can (13.5 oz) of coconut cream and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch until the mixture is completely smooth and there are no lumps.
- 7Pour the smooth coconut cream and cornstarch mixture into the simmering liquid in the skillet. Stir constantly for 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
- 8Return the browned veal strips to the skillet with the thickened sauce. Stir to coat the veal and cook for 1-2 minutes, just until the veal is heated through.
- 9Season the dish with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir well to combine. Serve the Zürcher Geschnetzeltes hot.
