Ingredients

Servings: 4
  • 1 knuckle of veal (approx. 1.2 kg)
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 7-10 Tbsp white pepper
  • 3 Garlic cloves
  • 2 Rosemary twigs (alternatively dried rosemary)
  • 40 g clarified butter
  • 1 cauliflower
  • 375 g Mushrooms
  • 500 g Carrots
  • 1/4 l clear broth (instant)
  • 80 g Tyrolean bacon (alternatively lean smoked streaky bacon)
  • 20 g Butter or margarine
  • 7-10 Tbsp grated nutmeg

Directions

  1. 1

    Wash veal shank and pat dry. Rub with salt and pepper and place in a roaster. Peel and slice the garlic. Pluck rosemary needles from the twigs. Cover knuckle with garlic and rosemary.

  2. 2

    Heat clarified butter and pour over the knuckle. Roast in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for about 1 3/4 hours. If necessary, add some water in between. Clean and wash the cauliflower and mushrooms.

  3. 3

    Cut the cauliflower into florets, halve the mushrooms. Peel, wash and slice the carrots. Cook the cauliflower and carrots in the boiling broth for 12-15 minutes. Dice bacon and leave it in the fat.

  4. 4

    Steam mushrooms in bacon fat for 5 minutes and add to vegetables. Put everything into the roasting pan, mix a little and braise again briefly. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Boiled potatoes taste good with it.
