Overall a good a recipe, I did get a little confused about shanks (my immediate thought is something like lamb shanks) but an Osso Bucco cut is more like a steak with the bone in it. For some reason tonight I could not get the flame right under the pot it was either boiling like heck or barely cooking and as I did want to cook it really slow I put it in a 150C fan forced oven for about 1 1/2 hours (after 10/15 minutes on stove top) turning the chops/steaks a few times (I had 9 with a total weight of just over 2K). The DH wasn't keen on it but the rest of us loved it. Thank you amanda 1b, made for PAC September/October 2009.

I love entertaining at home and having friends and family over for a meal is one of my favourite ways to catch up. I'm a working mother of one, so I'm often looking for things that taste and look fantastic - but are simple to prepare. Gone are the days when I'd spend all day assembling a meal for the night's dinner party! My husband loves to eat - and occassionally bbqs - and I'm hoping that one day the palate of my discerning 6 yr old daughter will enjoy both the outputs and endeavours of my kitchen.
I'm always to looking for new ideas and inspirations. I also love to pass on my successful recipes to others. I frequently create or adapt dishes that I've seen, read or tasted someweere. I'm also conscious of my family's health, so am always keen to explore how I can reduce the fat content but keep things tasting delicious.
