Not All Braised Beef Shank Is Osso Buco... Glen And Friends Cooking

Not All Braised Beef Shank Is Osso Buco... Glen And Friends Cooking
Say braised beef shank / beef shin, and most people will say back to you: "Osso Buco". Yes, yes we understand that Osso Buco is originally made with veal shanks, but veal is harder and harder to find in North America, not to mention it's really expensive. Today Glen takes the relatively inexpensive beef shank / beef shin and does a free form recipe making a tasty slow cooked braised osso buco alternative.

Ingredients:
Oil for frying
Beef shank / shin cut into 1½” slices
Salt and pepper to taste
1-2 hot banana peppers
1 carrot
1 onion
1-2 stalks celery
10 mL (2 tsp) cumin
10 mL (2 tsp) chili powder
45 mL (3 Tbsp) tomato paste
15 mL (1 Tbsp) Marmite
250 mL (1 cup) chicken or beef stock
250 mL (1 cup) white wine


Method:
Pre-heat oven to 250ºF - 310ºF
Season the shanks with salt and pepper.
In a blender; whiz together peppers, carrot, celery, cumin, chilli powder, tomato paste, marmite and stock.
In a heavy bottom pot with a tight fitting lid, heat some oil to medium hot; then brown the shank on all sides.
Pour the sauce mixture into the pan, along with the wine.
Cover tightly and place in the oven for 3-4 hours.
Check occasionally to adjust liquid.
