Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat the oil in a heavy-bottom saucepan. Add the veal shanks and sear over medium heat until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Add the shallots and the garlic. Cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Increase the heat to high. Add the vinegar and simmer until it glazes the bottom of the pan, about 3 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add the wine and simmer until reduced to ½ cup, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients. Stir to combine.

  4. Step 4

    Return the shanks to the pan. Cover partly and simmer over medium-low heat until the meat falls off the bone, about 2 hours. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide among 4 plates and garnish with the mint. Serve with root vegetable puree (recipe below).
