Pork Osso Bucco Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pork Shank

   Season the pork shanks with salt and black pepper on all sides.

2. 2

   Sear the Meat

   In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork shanks and sear until browned on all sides. Remove from pot and set aside.

3. 3

   Sauté Vegetables

   In the same pot, add chopped onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms; cook for another 3 minutes.

4. 4

   Deglaze the Pot

   Pour in the white wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.

5. 5

   Add Stock and Herbs

   Stir in the veal stock, thyme, and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer.

6. 6

   Braise the Pork

   Return the seared pork shanks to the pot, ensuring they are submerged in the liquid. Cover the pot with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 2 to 2.5 hours, until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.

7. 7

   Serve

   Remove the pork shanks from the pot and let rest for a few minutes. Serve with the braising liquid and vegetables.
