Method

  • step 1

    Season the ossobuco and toss it in the flour. Heat the olive oil in a casserole or large pan over a medium-high heat and brown the veal in batches until golden all over. Scoop out onto a plate using a slotted spoon. Add the butter and fry the onion for 5 minutes until just beginning to soften. Pour in the wine and bubble for a minute before returning the veal to the pan with the bay and stock. Bring to a simmer. Cook for 1 hour 30 minutes-2 hours until the meat is tender.

  • step 2

    When the ossobuco has 30 minutes remaining, make the risotto. Heat the olive oil in a deep frying pan over a medium heat and fry the onion for 10 minutes until really soft. Add the saffron and rice, and fry for 2 minutes more. Pour in the wine and cook until completely evaporated. Stir in the stock, a ladleful at a time, until the rice is just cooked with a little bite. Stir in the cheese and butter. Season. Spoon the risotto into bowls, then top with the ossobuco and scatter with some parsley.
