I already have a recipe for “wine potatoes”, but there potatoes are baked in the oven in small portions and for a long time. I rethought this recipe and simplified it for cooking in a frying pan. I picked up a recipe for osso buco from turkey, which also plays a special role in wine.
The recipe for this wine was extracted from a magazine published by a supermarket chain. The dish turns out to be 2 in 1: both hot and with a side dish. Helps out when there is not enough time for a long culinary creativity. The name of something fascinating is Osso Bucco! It turns out a soft and tender turkey under fragrant vegetables. The wine gives the dish a special pleasant aftertaste. The colors of my language palette are not enough to accurately describe this. Potatoes in wine are combined with this turkey.

The pie turns out to be tender, slightly crispy and light. And the filling is like a salute! A large number of ingredients replacing each other create a bright rich taste.
