French Onion Osso Bucco

A family favourite our ours. Full of flavour with a slight sweetness which makes it loved by my children. Perfect on mashed potatoes or pulled apart and used in burgers or tacos with slaw.

    Is it possible to use oyster blade steak or chuck steak instead.

  2. kirsten crack

    Hi Susan, you sure can. You can use any stewing beef 🙂

  3. Susan Williams

    I made this using chuck steak & it was really nice & tasty, and the meat was very tender. . Otherwise I followed the recipe exactly.

  4. Susan Williams

    Sorry I forgot to say I also added carrot, celery & chopped potatoes

  5. Tracy

    White or brown vinegar? Which one do you recommend Kirsten?

  6. Emma

    Cooking this as we speak one hr to go but it smell so good I hope my 15 month old likes it as she is a fussy one

  7. Kirsty Crack

    Hi Tracy, white or brown vinegar can be used.

    This was brilliant. Saucy, Rich, Delicious. I served with Mash potato and used chuck for a cheaper alternative and it was perfect. it was a clear winner in my house!

  9. Lisa

    Really delicious!!
    I served with chips and the sauce was a yummy dipping sauce for them too!

    So tasty and easy to make. I added carrot and celery as well as 1/2 a tin of diced tomatoes I had to use up. Served with mash and a green vegetable. Thank you for a wonderful recipe ?

  11. Jillian Turner

    Beautiful recipe, thank you. I used diced chuck steak & added a heap of veg – cauliflower, broccoli, capsicum, carrots, brussel sprouts with whole baby potatoes added two hours before the end. Thickened beautifully & so tasty using my homemade tomato relish (in replacement for what relish recipe stated) that I had on hand. Will definitely make again.

    Second time ever having osso bucco and I think it’s my favourite now! Such a simple, easy recipe which is delicious. I cooked it for 7.5 hours on low with a touch of extra liquid. Will serve with mash and pumpkin for dinner tonight ?

    Tried this today and it was a big winner with my hubby. 10 out of 10 he said. Full of deliciousness and flavour. As I love cooking with herbs I added 1 teaspoon each of dried thyme and Italian herbs. I also added fruit chutney as I didn’t have any caramelised onion in the pantry. Highly recommend this recipe

    Yum!
    We enjoyed trying this recipe tonight thanks Kristy 🙂
    Next time I may reduce French onion to half pkt just to lower salt slightly but would definitely do this again and it would adapt to other meats too Eg lamb chops or a shredded brisket – very tasty!

    made this for hubby and son and it was amazing, scrapped plates all round, very tasty xx

    Tried this last night and it was very yummy. The meat fell of the bone and the flavour was really nice. I didn’t have any caramelised onion relish so I add some mango chutney that I had in the fridge as well as an onion and a couple f tomatoes that needed using up. Served with mash and verges. Definitely one to do again .
