Traditionally an accompaniment to the Milanese braised veal shank dish ossobuco alla Milanese, gremolata is also delicious served with beef and lamb casseroles, spoon over rich vegetable soups, or as a seasoning to enliven tomatoes, lamb, salmon, chicken, potatoes and prawns.

- Finely chop ½ cup flat-leaf parsley leaves. Place into a bowl.
- Add 1 finely grated garlic clove and 2 teaspoons of finely grated lemon rind and mix to combine. Serve with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
Tip: For best results, use a microplane grater for the garlic and lemon rind so it is very finely grated.
