Veal kidney with Madeira sauce

Well, we can say this veal kidney with Madeira sauce French recipe is as rustic as it is tasty! I love it!
To tell the truth, it’s a recipe that scared me a little at first: I imagined something complex and technical… But in the end, it’s disconcertingly simple! The result? A generous, fragrant and comforting dish, which calls upon grandmother’s recipes. A nice addition to my repertoire of traditional and authentic dishes… And above all, a real treat for the taste buds!
Since I was little, I’ve loved kidneys, and I also love shallot sauce. So I wanted to marry these two pleasures in a recipe associated with Madeira. Verdict? A total success! Just looking at the photos makes me salivate.
That said, as delicious as winter recipes are, I must admit that I increasingly want to bite into a beautiful juicy tomato and see the market stalls fill up with spring produce… Because well, cabbages, leeks and potatoes are delicious, but I want a change!
