  1. I cut the recipe in half as it is only DH and myself. I used vermouth instead of opening a new bottle of wine just for this. We really enjoyed this meal and will look forward to using this recipe again. Kudos on a great find!!
     
  2. Realy like the flavour the lemon lent to the dish. Thought it was on the salty side with all the capers, next time I'll only add 1 tbsp.
     
  3. I have eaten this many times when I lived in Germany and it was one of my favourite dishes, so this was a treat for us! I followed the recipe exactly and even used German Riesling for my wine! I served this with your recipe for Recipe #136384, the lettuce leaves and the pickled beetroot (beets) for a fabulous Sunday lunch! As there was only two of us, I cut the recipe down to half. A trip down memory lane, thanks Reets darlink! Made for the Whine and Cheese Gang and the German leg of ZWT#6. Merci encore. FT:-) PS: I used veal cutlet chops, bone in, not sure what cutlets mean in the US, but cutlets in Europe are usually bone it!
     
  4. This was such a quick dish to put together. I used heavy cream instead of evaporated milk. The flavor was really good. My veal was not the most tender but that had nothing to do with the recipe or me. I am going to start going back to the Fresh Market for my meat from now on, I am tired of wasting good money at a grocer and it not be good meat. But this is a very good recipe to put together for during the week. I had the lettuce on the side with my home made pickled beets. Delicious. Thanks Rita for the recipe. Made this recipe for the Comfort Cafe '09
     
  5. This was fantastic thanks Rita. The only change we made to this simple, delicious dish was to use light cream (which is what we had open on hand). We had all the sauce on 2 beautiful bone-in cutlets, then had them over mash with steamed veg. I couldn't have eaten the beets and lettuce with it;-) If I was home I'd have put a little fresh lemon tyme from my garden in this and if I could give more stars I would!
