Categories     dinner, main course

Time 3h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons walnut oil or peanut oil
4 1 1/2-inch-thick veal shanks
Sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 large onions (about 3 pounds), sliced about 1/2 inch thick
2 carrots in thick, diagonal slices
1/2 cup white wine
3 heads of garlic, cloves lightly smashed, then peeled
2 sprigs thyme
2 cups chicken or beef broth

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place a braising pan large enough to hold shanks over medium high heat. Add oil. Season veal with salt and pepper, then add to hot pan. Brown shanks all over, about 20 minutes. Remove to a plate. Pour off or add oil to pan until you have 3 tablespoons. Heat oil until shimmering. Add onions and carrots, and cook until golden brown, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Nestle veal in vegetables, and pour wine on top. Reduce by three-quarters. Add garlic and thyme, and pour broth on top. Bring to a simmer. Cover meat with a piece of foil, turning corners up. Cover pan with a lid, and place in oven. Braise until meat is very tender, about 2 1/2 hours. Season to taste. Remove from oven, and let cool in pan. Refrigerate.
  • The next day, reheat veal over low heat. Serve with risotto or potatoes and the sauce and vegetables.

Time 4h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cross-cut veal shanks (about 1 pound each)
All-purpose flour, for dredging
2 1/2 cups sliced onion
2 cups chopped carrot
2 cups sliced celery
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
Salt
12 sprigs fresh thyme
4 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
2 bay leaves
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 Fresno chile, quartered
1/4 cup tomato paste
1 cup dry red wine
8 cups chicken stock
Freshly cracked black pepper
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons olive oil
Zest of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cloves garlic, minced

Steps:

  • Coarse sea salt, for garnish, optional For the braised veal shanks: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Heat the olive oil in a large enameled cast-iron Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Dredge the shanks in the flour, making sure to get off any excess. Add the shanks to the pan, in batches if necessary, and cook on all sides until browned, 3 to 4 minutes each side. Transfer to a plate. If browning in batches, repeat with the remaining shanks. Add the onions, carrots, celery, coriander, 1 teaspoon salt, thyme, garlic, bay leaves, rosemary and chiles to the pan and cook over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until glossy, about 2 minutes. Add the wine, scraping to deglaze the pan. Add the chicken stock and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Taste the simmering braising liquid at this point; it should taste seasoned. Return the shanks to the pan, cover and braise in the oven until the meat is very tender, 3 to 4 hours.
  • For the gremolata: When almost ready to serve, combine the parsley, olive oil, lemon zest and juice, salt and garlic in a small bowl. Stir to combine. To serve, remove the shanks to a serving platter and spoon the sauce and braising vegetables over the top of them. Sprinkle with a little bit of sea salt and garnish with gremolata.

ORANGE-BRAISED CARROTS & PARSNIPS



Orange-Braised Carrots & Parsnips image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound carrots, with the greens attached
1 pound thin parsnips
1/3 cup small-diced shallots (1 large)
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 1/4 cups freshly squeezed orange juice, divided (3 oranges)
1/3 cup good olive oil
6 sprigs fresh thyme, tied with kitchen string
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • Trim and scrub or peel the carrots and parsnips. If the parsnips are thick, slice them in half or quarters lengthwise so they are about the same width as the carrots.
  • Place the carrots and parsnips in a pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, that's large enough for the vegetables to lie flat. Add the shallots, orange zest, 3/4 cup of the orange juice, the olive oil, thyme, red pepper flakes, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  • Place the pot on the stove and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover tightly with a lid or heavy-duty foil. Transfer to the oven and cook for 1 1/2 hours, until the carrots and parsnips are very tender. Discard the thyme bundle. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup of orange juice and the parsley and season to taste. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

BRAISED VEAL SHANKS

Steps:

  • In a pan just large enough to hold them in a single layer, brown the veal shanks on both sides in oil over high heat. Remove the shanks, discard the oil, and return the shanks to the pan.
  • Pour over enough white wine to come a quarter of the way up the sides of the shanks. Simmer over medium heat until only a couple of tablespoons of liquid remain in the bottom of the pan.
  • Add julienned carrots, leeks, and turnips to the pan and pour over enough veal or chicken broth or water to come about halfway up the sides of the shanks. Bring to a gentle simmer on the stove.
  • Cover the pan and bake at 325°F for 2 hours, or until the shanks offer no resistance when poked with a skewer; the julienned vegetables will be meltingly tender. Check periodically to make sure the liquid isn't boiling; a bubble should rise to the surface only every 2 or 3 seconds.
  • Carefully transfer the shanks to individual soup plates, place a mound of the julienned vegetables on each shank, and ladle over the hot braising liquid. (If the braising liquid seems to thin, reduce it slightly; if it seems greasy, transfer it to a saucepan and remove the fat with a spoon or small ladle or with a degreasing cup.)
