  • 800 grams Elvea Peeled Tomatoes
  • 4 tablespoons ELVEA Doppio Concentrato
  • 800 milliliters of vegetable broth
  • 2 glasses of white wine
  • 4 carrots
  • 4 stalks of celery

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mise en place

    Fill a deep plate with a bottom of flour. Place the osso buco in it and cover completely with flour.

  2. 2

    Finely chop the carrot, celery, onion & garlic.

  3. 3

    Sauce preparation

    Sauté the carrot, celery, onion, and garlic well in a generous splash of olive oil. Then add the tomato paste and let it fry for a moment. Deglaze everything with the vegetable broth. Crush the peeled tomatoes with your hands and add them all to the sauce.

  4. 4

    Also add the spice peel and simmer on low heat. Meanwhile, start the osso buco.

  5. 5

    Ossobuco

    Put a large lump of butter in a roasting pan. Heat well and brown the ossobuco on all sides until crispy and golden brown.

  6. 6

    Deglaze the pan with the white wine, let it boil out for a while and make sure all the seasonings sticking to the bottom of the pan are nicely loosened.

  7. 7

    Place the osso buco pieces in the tomato sauce and also pour in the remaining liquid.

  8. 8

    Put a lid on the pan and simmer on a (very) low heat for at least 2 hours. Stir occasionally so that nothing sticks to the bottom and burns.

  9. 9

    Finish

    Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with pepper, salt, and a pinch of sugar if desired.

  10. 10

    Cook the orecchiette until done, add a little of the sauce and stir well. Serve with extra sauce, pieces of ossobuco & Parmesan cheese.
