Braised Veal Shanks, Milan Style image

I have said it alot, I love veal, and making things in the slow cooker, makes it so simple.If you like, you can use beef shanks. You may have to request the shanks from your butcher, at least where I live, they aren't always available.This dish is also known as ossobuco
