Directions:
Lightly salt and pepper the veal, dredge it in flour and shake the excess off.
In a wide skillet, heat the vegetable oil until it is hot but not smoking. Saut� the floured veal on both sides until golden and set on a plate. Drain the oil off and return to fire. Add half of the butter and the shallots. Cook for a few minutes until wilted, add mushrooms, salt and pepper and saut� over medium heat until all water has evaporated from the mushrooms, approximately 10 minutes.
