One Response to Veal Stew with Apricots and Prunes

  1. I just made the veal stew and it is delicious! I love the addition of the dried fruit. It’s adds wonderful sweetness. I suggest adding some potatoes to thicken up the sauce and I think the stew needs to simmer for longer. Maybe 60-90 minutes. The veal needed more time to soften up so I just let it simmer for a while and the flavors really came together. I would still add the dried fruit after 40 minutes and then it will have a chance to break down a little.
