  • bowl
  • Lid
  • 1.5-2kg osso buco
  • 1 TBSP   ghee or tallow or olive oil
  • 1 brown onion (sliced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (finely sliced)
  • 1 carrot (diced)
  • 2 stalks celery (diced)

Optional: 

  • 1 eggplant (diced)

To Serve:

  • mashed potato/cauliflower, rice or risotto or through pasta.
  1. Preheat oven to 130c.

  2.  In a large casserole dish add the ghee over a medium-high heat and then brown off the osso buco on both sides.

  4. Add the Passata, bone broth, bay leaves to the dish and stir. Add the meat in an even layer and the resting juices. Ensure the liquid is nearly covering the meat, if not add more broth or water.

  5. Pop the lid on and place in the oven for around 6 hours or until the meat is falling off the bone.

  6. When ready – scoop the marrow out of the bones and shred the meat off. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with mashed potato or cauliflower or rice or through pasta!

Delish! I was wondering what you would do if you added to a risotto? Do you just stir it through at the end?

I guess so! We usually serve it on top of pasta or rice, but mixed through risotto would probably be delicious :)
