Easy and quick ossobuco recipe in a pan is a traditional main course that is very simple to prepare and rich in flavor. I used veal shanks, but you can also use turkey shanks as an alternative. I have often been asked how to cook ossobuco, so I thought of offering you the grandmother’s ossobuco recipe with tomato sauce. You can then serve the ossobuco with polenta and use any leftover sauce to season pasta. Now let’s see how to make the ossobuco easily and quickly, and if you try it, let me know. Barbara

How to prepare easy and quick ossobuco recipe in a pan
Let’s start preparing the ossobuco in a pan. Clean the carrot, onion, and celery, then cut the vegetables into small cubes. Use scissors to trim the fat from the shanks so they don’t curl during cooking.
Place the vegetables and some extra virgin olive oil in a pan, sauté for a few minutes, then add the shanks. Brown them for 5 minutes on each side, then deglaze with white wine. Once the alcohol has evaporated, add the tomato puree or peeled tomatoes, some salt, and continue cooking for 30 minutes, occasionally turning them.
If you see that the sauce is reducing too much, add some vegetable stock or water, and serve the shanks hot.
