This is one of my favourite recipes. I love this Italian, slow braised veal dish and it's great for dinner parties, as this can be prepared in advance and heated up just before serving.
-1.5 kg of veal shanks
-2 carrots
-2 celery sticks
-1 onion
-2 garlic cloves
-3 cups of red or white wine
-3 cups of water
-1 teaspoon of chilli paste
-1 can of concentrated tomato paste (70g)
-Salt & pepper to taste
-1 tablespoon of olive oil
-A few sprigs of parsley
-Zest of 1 orange or lemon
-Peel onions & carrots. Chop up the carrots, celery, onions and sauté in olive oil for 7 minutes.
-Take out the vegetables and add the veal. Brown the meat on each side for a few minutes.
-Add the vegetables back with the meat along with red or white wine, water, chilli paste, tomato paste, salt and pepper.
.
-Bring everything to a boil and then simmer for about 2 hours. Sir from time to time
-Chop up the parsley and combine with orange or lemon zest.
-Boil your preferred pasta noodles in salted water for 12 minutes.
-To serve, place the pasta in a dish, add the veal with sauce and top off with parsley and orange zest mixture.
