Ossobuco

Perfect dish for guests, you can put it in the oven for hours, and even when they’re late it doesn’t matter at all. Plus it’s extremely delicious.

Edited 28 October 2012: We made this again. It was jaw-dropping. It tasted great, and the meat was so tender it literally melted into pieces. Unfortunately, it was quite expensive too, so it's something for very special occasions (and small dinners).

Served with fried chantarelles, mashed potatoes and a salad of rocket, walnuts, gorgonzola with a sweet fig vinegar dressing as side dishes.
