  • 1 3/4 lb veal lights
  • bouquet garni

  • 2 3/4 pints water
  • salt and freshly milled white pepper
  • 5 peppercorns
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 4 tablespoons wine vinegar
  • 2 oz butter
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons white wine

  • Bring the water to the boil in a saucepan with a generous pinch of salt, the peppercorns, bay leaves, vinegar, herbs and onion.
