- Place the osso buco onto a plate, season with sea salt and pepper and dust with flour to coat. Heat a fry pan over high heat and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Carefully add the osso bucco in a single layer and brown on both sides (approx. 5 minutes). Transfer to plate and set aside.
- Add the remaining olive oil to the pan and add the onion, carrot, celery, mushroom and garlic and sauté until the onion is translucent and the vegetables are tender.
- Turn slow cooker on low. Put vegetable mix, osso bucco, beef bone broth/stock, tomato paste, tomato passata, bay leaves and oregano in slow cooker.
- Pop the lid on and cook for approx 5-6 hours or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.
- Use two fork to shred the tender beef, make sure you scoop the marrow out of bone and combine, it’s nutrient rich!
- Bring a large pot of water to the boil, season with sea salt and cook pasta of choice according to packet instructions. Drain and return to pot. Add a cup or two of the osso buco ragu to the pappardelle and gently stir to combine. Add a handful of parsley and a generous grating of parmesan.
