Traditional German veal shank

This simple recipe for veal shank is a big hit with my family. The combination of crispy skin and tender, juicy meat is simply irresistible. When I have the time, I really like to cook it slowly at a low temperature to get the most flavor out of it. But don't worry, veal shank can also be prepared in less time and is still very tasty.

Directions

120 min.
1. Step

For the veal shank recipe, preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Meanwhile, season the veal shank with salt and pepper. I recommend to cut the shank well, so that the spices can soak in well.

2. Step

Sear the veal shank in a roasting pan. I prefer to use margarine for this, as it creates a nice caramelized effect.

3. Step

Cut the greens, carrots, onions and garlic into coarse pieces and place them around the veal shank in the roasting pan. Add the bay leaves.

4. Step

Deglaze with white wine and boil down briefly. Then add the vegetable stock. This gives the shaxe additional moisture and promotes cooking.

5. Step

Let the veal shank including vegetables braise in the oven for about 2 hours. During this time, turn the shank occasionally and pour the broth over it. This keeps it wonderfully juicy and gives it a nice crust.

6. Step

Remove the veal shank from the oven and serve. I recommend serving it with the vegetables cooked in the roast stock and a side dish of your choice. Enjoy your meal!
