Spectacular! I couldn't get veal shanks cut 2 inch thick, but managed to find them 1 1/4 inch thick. I reduced the rest of the ingredients accordingly, and was amazed by the addition of cinnamon...never had it in Osso Bucco! This was an amazing dish that I will make again. Thanks for sharing. Made for Newest Tag.

This was the first time I had cooked ossobuco and my attraction to this recipe was that there was no onion (which the DH is intolerant to). my veal shanks (bone in) where thin and I used 7 for 4 of us but even after 1 1/2 hours of cooking at 170C fan forced they where not fall of the bone that I expected but otherwise was a good easy recipe and was overall enjoyed.
