I've cobbled up this recipe for osso buco based on hints from them and other recipes (primarily the one from Giada de Laurentiis at Food Network) I've seen online.

1. 1 kg beef shanks
2. 1/4 tsp dried thyme
3. 1/4 tsp dried rosemary

5. 1/4 tsp whole cloves
6. flour for dredging
7. 1 small carrot, diced
8. 1 stalk celery, diced
9. 1 tbsp tomato paste
10. salt and pepper to taste
11. 1/4 cup vegetable oil
12. 1 cup white wine
13. 3 cups beef/chicken/vegetable stock or water
14. gremolata/chimichurri to serve

Steps to make Osso Buco

1. Place the rosemary, thyme, bay leaf, and cloves inside an empty tea bag or wrap inside a cheesecloth tied with twine. This is the bouquet garni.
2. In a saucepan, heat oil on medium high heat until smoking. Season the beef shanks with salt and pepper and dredge them in flour. Fry on all sides until browned, about 3 minutes per side, and set aside.
3. In the same saucepan, add carrot and celery. Season with a bit of salt, and sauté until soft, about 8 minutes. Add tomato paste, and mix well.
4. Return beef shanks and add white wine, reducing liquid to half, about 5 minutes. Add bouquet garni and 2 cups stock/water and reduce heat to low. Season with more salt and pepper as needed. Let simmer until the meat is tender, about 1½ to 2 hours, turning shanks periodically and adding more stock/water as needed so that the liquid remains about ¾ up the shanks.
5. Remove the shanks from the pot to a serving plate. Remove and discard bouquet garni. Pour juices and sauce from the pot over the shanks and serve, topped with gremolata or chimichurri.
