Greek-Style Veal

Instructions

1. 1

   With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 170 °C (325 °F).

2. 2

   Cut a large 50-cm (20-inch) square of extra strength aluminum foil. If necessary, double the foil.

3. 3

   In a skillet, brown the roast on all sides in the oil. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the roast from the pan and set aside.

4. 4

   In the same skillet, brown the onions. Add oil as needed. Add the garlic, red wine and reduce for 3 minutes over high heat. Add the tomatoes and oregano. Reduce until the liquid thickens. Remove from the heat and add the olives. Season with salt and pepper.

5. 5

   Place half the vegetables in the centre of the foil. Top with the roast and pour the remaining sauce over the roast. Tightly close the foil to form a papillote. Place in a saucepan and cover.

6. 6

   Bake for approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes. Remove from the oven. Slice or break the meat with a fork and serve with potatoes and vegetables.
