Method
- Make small cuts in the skin of the ossobuco to prevent it from curling during cooking.
- Heat oil, butter, and a strip of lard in a pan. Add coarsely chopped carrot and onion.
- Season with coarse salt and paprika. Dust the ossobuco pieces generously with flour on all sides.
- Place the floured ossobuco in the pan. Do not brown; just let them heat through for about 5 minutes on each side.
- Deglaze with a dry white wine, pouring it around the meat. Add two ladles of vegetable broth.
- Lower the heat, cover with a lid (preferably copper) and cook on very low heat for about 1.5 hours.
- For the final touch, heat butter until foaming, then add capers, green olives, and thinly sliced zucchini. Toss briefly.
- Place the cooked ossobuco on a plate, spoon the butter sauce over the top, and serve immediately. Scoop out the marrow from the bone with a small knife.
