This is another speciality from the island of Corfu. If you visit the island, then you must try this traditional dish (unless you're a vegetarian, that is!).
Ingredients
2 kg veal
Flour for frying
3-4 cloves garlic
3-4 cloves garlic
Some parsley
Sunflower oil
Salt
Pepper
1 bottle white wine
1 bottle white wine
Preparation
Slice the meat.
Add salt and pepper.
Heat the oil in a frying pan, flour the meat and fry it on both sides for 2-3 minutes.
Remove the meat and place it in a roasting pan.
Add the chopped garlic and parsley, along with the wine.
Cover the pan with cooking foil and place in a pre-heated oven at 200 degrees C for 30 minutes.
Sofrito is best accompanied by rice and vegetables.

This sounds really good. Veal is so expensive here in the states but I love it.
I could see that varies in other countries...
According to Wikipedia, "sofrito" is a Spanish word for a well cooked and fragrant sauce. I watched Jose Andres from Made in Spain making sofrito with veggies (olive oil, onions, scallions and garlic). Since I am vegetarian, that's the one that suits me.
I like Greek and the rest of Mediterranean food but has to be with veggies only.
Keep your good work!

Great site you have here! Thanks for sharing your recipes!
In Greek cuisine, the term sofrito refers to a specific dish native to, and almost exclusively to be found on, the island of Corfu. Sofrito is a veal steak slow-cooked in a white wine, garlic, and herb sauce, and is usually served with rice.[
@Spanish steps
Tha Sofrito that you mention is completely different and not a dish in its own right. It is a base for soups and casseroles. Whereas Greek Sofrito is a dis native to Corfu.
Although the recipe mentions Veal, in Corfu that refers to lean beef.
