1 hrsThis Milan-style veal has a trick up its sleeve: Mei Yen seasoning, a savory Chinese spice blend that adds a layer of umami depth you wouldn’t expect in an Italian-leaning dish.
The steaks brown in butter, then simmer gently in white wine with rosemary and garlic until they’re fork-tender.
Sliced mushrooms go back in at the end with sour cream stirred through the pan juices to create a velvety sauce that coats every bite.
It’s old-world comfort with a subtle Eastern twist that keeps people guessing what makes it so good.
Kitchen Tips
- Let the sour cream come to room temperature before adding it to the pan. Cold sour cream hitting hot liquid is a fast track to a broken, curdled sauce.
- Keep the heat very low once the sour cream is in. If it boils, it separates. Patience here is everything.
- Crush the rosemary between your fingers before adding it to release the aromatic oils.
- If you can’t find Mei Yen seasoning, a mix of soy sauce powder and a pinch of sugar makes a reasonable substitute.

When veal has browned, pour this over the veal.
