Add the wine and stock, bring to boil then add the chopped tomatoes and season.

 

 

Choose a dish that will hold the osso bucco snugly. Place them in the dish then pour over the sauce and cover tightly with kitchen foil and place in the oven at 170 C for approx 2 hrs, the meat should fall from the bone when ready.

 

 

For the Gremolata and Baked Risotto:-

 

 

For the gremolata, simply mix all the ingredients together in an ovenproof dish. Heat the oil on top of the stove and add the butter, onion and saffron. Cook gently for 5/6mins.

 

 

Add the rice, season and cook for 1min then add the stock and bring to the boil.

 

 

Cover with a tight fitting lid or clingfilm and kitchen foil and place in the oven at 200 C for 30mins until the rice is cooked but retains a slight bite (al dente).

 

 

Carefully remove the osso bucco from the dish and reduce the cooking liquid until a sauce like consistency is achieved, heat the osso bucco in the sauce and serve sprinkled with gremolata and baked risotto.
