Slow Cooker Osso Bucco
One of my favourite comfort food dishes and so simple to make. Braising down this amazing cut of meat will surprise you with its tenderness. Delish!
Osso Bucco is one of my favourite comfort food dishes and yet I hardly ever make it. It is so simple to make. I think I am engaged in making other things to keep up with your expectations dear reader!
Braising down this amazing cut of meat will surprise you with its tenderness. I also love the punch of freshness from adding the Gremolata at the end, which should not be missed for any reason. You could use a pesto as well as a garnish and this will achieve much the same flavour result.
Use any mash you like, we love it with polenta, it will stick to your ribs and warm up the entire family. You can of course take this keto by using Cauliflower Mash, you will hardly tell the difference. Serve it with plenty of steamed veggies on the side if you wish, or just hunker down and have another serving of the amazing tomatoey, meaty stew. Yum!
