- In a large pan, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil. Fry the ground veal over high heat, stirring with a wooden spoon until the meat is cooked. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside in a large bowl.
- In the same pan, sauté the mushrooms, onions, and herbs with the rest of the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
