What does Ossobuco mean?
Ossobucco is Italian and is called bones with hole and means the mark bone. Leg disks come from the leg of the beef or calf and contain these mark bones in the middle.
Braied leg disks are available in German, French, but also in Italian cuisine. It is classically prepared with root vegetables and dark sauce. Depending on the region, the ingredients are a little different.
Questions and answers to the ingredients
What kind of leg disks did you take?
I took two larger beef slices, but you can also take 4 smaller pieces.
Can I also use other vegetables?
In principle, but the soup vegetable gives the classic taste. But you can also add Mediterranean vegetables such as peppers, zucchini or tomatoes.
Can I replace the wine?
Yes, that works, instead I would add to tomatoes and some vinegar.
Can I also take broth instead of the wine?
Theoretically, but the “work” of the broth actually takes over the soup green.
What is better Slowcooker or oven?
So if you have followed me for a long time, I know that I love my Ninja Foodi Multikocher*. I personally braised the leg disks in it. Because the advantage is that I don’t have to be careful. I fry it and then set the slow cooking mode. In this way, the dish is cooked at a low temperature and keeps its healthy nutrients and becomes butter tender while the vegetables still have a bit bit.
However, I understand that not everyone wants to buy such a device, so there is also the variant from the oven from me.
