Then, using a knife, re-cut the edges of the cubes to round them in the shape of large olives.
Do the same with the carrots, the courgettes, the celeriac and the potatoes.
Cook them separately in boiling, salted water to be slightly crisp. Do the same with the green peas.
Finishing:
Remove the shanks from the oven and put them to one side on a plate.
Reduce the sauce by 1/3 if necessary, and strain it through a fine-mesh strainer.

the sauce over.
