Stuffing: To prepare stuffing, dice bacon and onion. Cook bacon in a frypan
until partially cooked; add onion and cook for 5 minutes. Drain and chop
mushrooms, add to frypan and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove mixture
from heat, let cool and transfer to a mixing bowl.
Add herbs, ground beef, bread crumbs, eggs, and sour cream. Mix
thoroughly. Season with salt and pepper. Veal: With a sharp knife, cut a
pocket in the veal breast or leg. Fill with stuffing; close opening with
toothpicks. (Tie with string if necessary.) Rub outside with salt and
pepper. Heat oil in a Dutch oven. Place meat in the pan and bake in a
preheated 350 degree F. oven about 1 1/2 hours. Bast occasionally with beef
broth. When done, place meat on a preheated platter. Pour rest of beef
broth into the Dutch oven and scrape brown particles from the bottom. Bring
pan drippings to a simmer. Thoroughly blend cornstarch with sour cream and
add to pan drippings while stirring cook and stir until thick and bubbly.
Slice veal breast and serve sauce separately.
