- Strain off the liquid and make a white (also called roux) sauce with it and the flour and butter. Add the stock cube for extra flavour. Allow sauce to boil for a few minutes, then add the mushrooms and herbs.
- Cook for a few more minutes, then add the egg yolk mixed with the cream or milk. Lastly, add the lemon juice.
- Pour the sauce over the meat and heat through. Do not allow to boil or the sauce will curdle. Garnish with coriander.
- Serve veal, or pork, on rice, or with mashed potato, and green vegetables, if liked. (Not suitable for freezing).
