    2 T Olive Oil
    1 C chopped Onion
    1/2 C finely chopped Carrots
    3 cloves Garlic, crushed

    Recipe



    1. In Dutch oven, heat half the oil over medium heat until hot. Add veal shanks (1/3 at a time) and brown evenly, turning occasionally; add remaining oil as needed. Remove shanks; season with 1 teaspoon salt.
    2. Add onion, carrots and crushed garlic to pan; cook and stir 6 to 8 minutes or until tender. Add tomatoes, wine and basil. Return shanks; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover tightly and simmer 1-1/2 hours or until veal is tender.
    3. Meanwhile combine gremolata ingredients; set aside.
    4. Remove shanks. Skim fat; cook liquid over high heat until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Spoon approx. 3/4 cup sauce over shanks; sprinkle with gremolata. Serve with remaining sauce.
    6 servings.
