Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cut the boneless veal into bite-sized cubes if not already done.
  2. In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the veal, sliced mushrooms, 1/2 cup of chicken broth, chopped onion, paprika, salt, pepper, and caraway seeds.
  3. Cover the pot and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the veal is tender. Stir occasionally.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk the remaining 1/2 cup of chicken broth with the flour until completely smooth and free of lumps.
  6. Stir the flour mixture into the simmering veal pot.
  7. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened.
  8. Remove the pot from heat. Let it stand for 2 minutes to cool slightly.
  9. Gently stir in the sour cream until fully incorporated and the sauce is creamy.
  10. Serve hot over cooked egg noodles, garnished with additional paprika or chopped fresh parsley if desired.
