Ingredients

Method

In shallow dish, stir together flour and half each of the salt and pepper; press veal shanks into flour mixture, turning to coat. Reserve remaining flour mixture.

In large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; brown veal shanks, in batches. Remove and set aside.

Drain fat from skillet. Add onion, garlic, anchovies, sage and remaining salt and pepper; cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 5 minutes.

Add wine and bring to boil, scraping up browned bits; add to slow cooker. Add tomatoes, tomato paste, lemon rind and 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the lemon juice to slow cooker; stir to combine. Add veal shanks.

Cover and cook on low until meat is tender, 6 to 8 hours. Skim off any fat. Transfer veal shanks to serving platter; cover and keep warm.

Whisk reserved flour mixture with 3 tbsp (45 mL) water; whisk into liquid in slow cooker. Cover and cook on high until thickened, about 15 minutes. Discard lemon rind. Stir in remaining lemon juice. Pour over veal shanks. Sprinkle with parsley.
