Directions
Dust veal with salt, pepper and flour. Heat the oil in a cast iron casserole. Sear the shanks, two at a time, on both sides; take care to not disturb the bone marrow. Remove shanks and set aside.

Return shanks to pan, keeping the heat high. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer, covered, for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until the meat starts to come away from the bone. Serve with fettuccine or rice.
