Preparation

Step 1
Place mushrooms, shallot and broth in a 2½-quart souffle dish with a tightly fitting lid. Cook, covered, at 100 percent power in a high-power oven for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and uncover. Stir in vermouth. Stir cornstarch and water together in a small dish. Stir into mushroom mixture. Let stand until cool. Dish can be prepared several hours ahead up to this point. Do not refrigerate.
Step 2
Nestle the veal into the sauce, with each medallion against the edge of the dish. Sprinkle the peas around the veal. Scatter the tarragon over all. Cook, covered, at 50 percent power for 12 minutes 30 seconds. Meanwhile, cook noodles. Drain and return them to the pan. Toss with butter and keep warm. Remove veal from oven and uncover. Season with salt and pepper. Serve over noodles.
