Curried Veal with Shallot and Pear Sauce

3.6

(9)

The eclectic menu at Razz's Restaurant & Bar in Scottsdale, Arizona, takes its cues from around the world. This curried veal dish is representative of chef-owner Erasmo "Razz" Kamnitzers talents. Razz is fond od of grains, so rice pilaf is appropriate here, along with steamed green and yellow zucchini. Vanilla puddings sprinkled with pistachios and raspberries would make a nice finish to this exotic menu.

Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Ingredients

9 ounces 1/4-inch-thick veal scallops
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
1 large pear, peeled, cored, coarsely chopped

Add wine and cream and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until sauce thickens and pear is soft, about 3 minutes. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
