Perfect for Sunday supper or for a holiday crowd, lamb Osso Buco is the ultimate Italian cold-weather dinner. It has tender braised meat, sautéed vegetables, and a white wine broth. It uses basic ingredients and is super easy to put together, but it tastes deliciously impressive. Letting it cook on low for several hours allows the meat to tenderize and the flavors to meld. 

Osso Buco is a classic Italian dish that originated in the Lombardy region of Italy. It's traditionally made with veal, but I opted for lamb shanks with this recipe because I love the robust, grassy flavor it has.

Add the lamb to the pan and sear on all sides until deep golden brown. It will take 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the seared lamb to a plate. Add the onions garlic, carrots and celery to the pan and season with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook for about 3 minutes until beginning to brown and the mixture is fragrant. Add the tomato paste and cook stirring often for about 2 minutes to caramelize the paste.
