• 4 large garlic cloves, finely chopped

• 5 anchovy fillets, rinsed, patted dry, and finely chopped

• 2 Turkish bay leaves or 1 California

• 240 مل نبيذ أبيض جاف

• 1 (800g) can whole tomatoes in juice, pulsed (including juice) in food processor until chopped

• 240ml water

• 2 (4- by 1-inch) strips fresh lemon zest

• 2 (4- by 1-inch) strips fresh orange zest

• 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

• 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh lemon zest

• 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh orange zest

Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 177°C.

Pat shanks dry. Stir together flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper on a sheet of wax paper. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. While oil heats, dredge 4 shanks in flour mixture, shaking off excess. Brown shanks in oil on all sides, turning with tongs, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a large (17- by 12- by 2-inch) roasting pan. Add 2 tablespoons oil to skillet and repeat with remaining 4 shanks. Discard remaining flour mixture.

Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to skillet and cook onion, garlic, anchovies, bay leaves, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoons pepper over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add wine and boil, scraping up any brown bits, until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, water, zest strips, and remaining teaspoon salt and bring to a boil, then pour mixture over shanks. Tightly cover pan with foil and braise in oven 1 hour. Turn shanks over, cover, and continue to braise until meat is very tender, about 1 1/2 hours more.

Remove from oven and skim fat from surface of sauce, then transfer shanks and sauce to a large platter. Discard bay leaves.

Stir together parsley, grated zests, and garlic and sprinkle over shanks.
