Bring the same pan back up to temperature and add the butter. Add the shallots and mushrooms and saute for 2- 3 minutes until softened. Add the stock, season and add a splash of Marsala and allow to reduce.step 3
Chop the vegetables into 2cm pieces. Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in another large pan. Lightly fry the garlic then add the peppers, aubergine and thyme and fry over a high heat for 3-4 minutes. Add the courgette. Season with salt and pepper and saute for 2 minutes until the vegetables are just tender. Take off the heat and dress with the a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar; check the seasoning. Finally add the parsley and keep warm until ready to serve.step 4
To finish the Marsala sauce mix through the diced tomatoes, chervil and tarragon. Return the veal back to the pan and spoon the sauce over the top to heat it through.step 5
Spoon the sauted vegetables onto warm plates. Lay the escalopes on top of the vegetables and spoon over the Marsala sauce.
