This delicious summer stew from Liguria makes the best use of the fresh, light tasting courgettes and tiny potatoes available in that area. In Italy, where the calves are milk-fed and are killed very young, this would be a quick dish – probably only 30 minutes’ simmering with tender meat. But for Northern Europe, where the calves are older, I have allowed extra simmering time.
