Veal Cubes in Gravy

Tonight's post is a quick recipe I made up on the fly. I have been busy with my Christmas baking, mostly high carb sugary stuff. I was trying to make room for another box of cookies and squares and found a package of veal cubes that had been in the freezer for quite some time. I don't like to waste food so I threw together a veal and vegetable dish with a lovely brown gravy. I severed it over cauli-rice with a side of salad.

Recipe

1 1/2 to 2 Pounds Cubed Veal

2 Tablespoon butter

1/2 an onion diced

1-2 carrots diced

2 stalks celery diced

2 teaspoons Kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

3 Cups water

1 Tablespoon beef liquid Bovril

Melt the butter in a large, non stick frying pan. Add diced vegetables and sauté until softened. 

Add the cubed veal and continue cooking until browned on all sides. 

Stir in the 3 cups of water and the liquid Bovril.

Simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until veal Cubes are tender. 

Whisk in 1/4 teaspoon Guar Gum to thicken sauce. 

Serves 4, approximately 3 net carbs. 

We served ours over a bed of cauliflower-rice to make sure we soaked up all of the delicious gravy. 

Enjoy!
