Veal in French

Cookinero 27 Apr 2025

French-style veal is one of the most popular meat recipes. Almost everyone likes meat cooked this way - it is juicy and tasty. Despite the name, the recipe was invented in the Russian Empire and was previously called "Orlov-style veal". Layers of veal were baked with potatoes and mushrooms, with Bechamel sauce and cheese. Today's version of cooking is different. To bake French-style veal in the oven, use the tenderloin or parts of the animal's hind leg.

How to cook Veal in French

Step 1
