Ingredients

  • 2 lbs beef knuckle, cleaned and trimmed
  • 1 onion, roughly chopped
  • 2 carrots, peeled and sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tablespoon peppercorns
  • Salt, to taste
  • Fresh herbs (thyme, rosemary), optional

Instructions

  • Start by seasoning the beef knuckle generously with salt.
  • In a large stockpot, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef knuckle on all sides until browned.
  • Add the chopped onion, sliced carrots, minced garlic, bay leaves, and peppercorns to the pot.
  • Pour enough water into the pot to cover the beef knuckle. Optionally, add fresh herbs for additional flavor.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, and then lower the heat to a simmer. Cover and let it simmer for 3-4 hours or until the beef is fork-tender.
  • Once cooked, carefully remove the beef knuckle from the pot and let it rest before slicing.
  • Serve the slices on a platter, surrounded by the flavorful broth and vegetables.
