Yield Makes 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

For shanks
8 (12- to 14-oz) meaty cross-cut veal shanks (also known as ossobuco; each about 13/4 inches thick)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/4 teaspoons black pepper
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped (2 cups)
4 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
5 anchovy fillets, rinsed, patted dry, and finely chopped
2 Turkish bay leaves or 1 California
1 cup dry white wine
1 (28-oz) can whole tomatoes in juice, pulsed (including juice) in food processor until chopped
1 cup water
2 (4- by 1-inch) strips fresh lemon zest
2 (4- by 1-inch) strips fresh orange zest
For gremolata
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh lemon zest
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh orange zest
1 large garlic clove, minced

Steps:

  • Make shanks:
  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Pat shanks dry. Stir together flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper on a sheet of wax paper. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. While oil heats, dredge 4 shanks in flour mixture, shaking off excess. Brown shanks in oil on all sides, turning with tongs, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a large (17- by 12- by 2-inch) roasting pan. Add 2 tablespoons oil to skillet and repeat with remaining 4 shanks. Discard remaining flour mixture.
  • Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to skillet and cook onion, garlic, anchovies, bay leaves, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add wine and boil, scraping up any brown bits, until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, water, zest strips, and remaining teaspoon salt and bring to a boil, then pour mixture over shanks. Tightly cover pan with foil and braise in oven 1 hour. Turn shanks over, cover, and continue to braise until meat is very tender, about 1 1/2 hours more.
  • Remove from oven and skim fat from surface of sauce, then transfer shanks and sauce to a large platter. Discard bay leaves.
  • Make gremolata:
  • Stir together parsley, grated zests, and garlic and sprinkle over shanks.

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika

1 tablespoon dried leaf oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme
2 1/2 pounds baking potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup milk
2/3 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven, heat vegetable oil over high heat until very hot.
  • Season shanks on both sides with the Essence, transfer to Dutch oven and cook until browned on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer shanks to a plate and set aside. Add onion, celery, carrots and mushrooms to the Dutch oven and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are soft and beginning to caramelize, about 7 minutes.
  • Add garlic, bay leaves, thyme, and rosemary and cook for 2 minutes. Add red wine and stir well with a wooden spoon, scraping bottom of pan to loosen any bits. Add tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, beef stock, basil, parsley, crushed red pepper, salt, and black pepper and stir well to combine.

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately, with sauce ladled over Basil-Mashed Potatoes. Serve with Sauteed Fennel and Leeks.

Return potatoes to the saucepan, add sour cream, and mash with a potato masher until desired smoothness is achieved. Season with more salt (if necessary) and black pepper. Stir in chopped basil and serve immediately.

1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium onions, cut into 1/4-inch dice (2 cups)

Steps:

  • Pat shanks dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dredge shanks in flour to coat, shaking off excess. Heat oil in a 5- to 6-quart wide heavy ovenproof pot over moderately high heat until just smoking, then brown shanks on all sides, about 10 minutes total, and transfer with tongs to a plate. Add butter to pot and heat until foam subsides, then sauté onions, carrots, celery, and garlic, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened, about 9 minutes.

  • Carefully transfer shanks with a slotted spoon to a clean plate and keep warm, loosely covered with foil. Skim fat from sauce, then simmer, uncovered, on top of stove, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pepper and add shanks, then cook over low heat until heated through. (Discard strings and bay leaf before serving.)

VEAL SHANK WITH SHALLOTS AND CHANTERELLES



Veal Shank With Shallots and Chanterelles image

Provided by Florence Fabricant

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 3h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 whole veal shank, 4 to 4 1/2 pounds
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pound large shallots, about 12, peeled
3 tablespoons flour
4 large cloves garlic, sliced
12 ounces fresh chanterelles, or other mushrooms, trimmed
1 1/2 cups cider, sweet or hard
1/2 cup veal or beef stock
6 sprigs fresh thyme
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Salt

Tips:

  • Sear the veal shanks: Searing the veal shanks before braising helps to develop a rich, flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Use a good quality wine: The wine you use in the braising liquid will contribute to the flavor of the dish, so choose a wine that you enjoy drinking.
  • Add vegetables and herbs: Vegetables and herbs add flavor and depth to the braising liquid. Common additions include carrots, celery, onions, leeks, garlic, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves.
  • Braise low and slow: Braising is a low and slow cooking method that allows the meat to become tender and fall off the bone. Cook the veal shanks for at least 2 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes or egg noodles: Braised veal shanks are traditionally served with mashed potatoes or egg noodles. The creamy texture of the mashed potatoes or the hearty texture of the egg noodles complement the rich, flavorful meat.

Conclusion:

Braised veal shanks are a classic dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a comforting weeknight meal. The combination of tender meat, flavorful sauce, and hearty vegetables makes this dish a surefire hit. With a little planning and effort, you can create a delicious and memorable meal that your family and friends will love.
