Osso buco with gremolata

Originating in Milan, this dish is now a savoured winter recipe worldwide. The name comes from ossbus, Milanese for ‘bone with a hole’ – a reference to the flavoursome marrow inside the bone. The classic Italian osso buco is made using slices of veal shin. It can be hard to get true veal shin in Australian butchers sometimes, but beef shin is an okay substitute.
