ISO tasty recipe for lamb shanks. I've found some recipes online, but I wonder if anyone has a favorite they're willing to share. Thanks, Mary Jo

MaryJo,

I'm not big into following recipes, so I don't have a specific suggestion for you, however, I'd suggest braising them with garlic, rosemary and tomato (with the usual braise ingredients, e.g., onion, perhaps some pancetta and a rich chicken stock). If you have access to flageolot beans, they would be awesome with that. You might want to google something along those lines and see if anything strikes your fancy.

I braised lamb shanks this weekend with a little twist on the ingredients.

Browned them well; then browned up carrot, onion, celery & parsnip as the flavoring vegs.

Everything back in the pot with some thyme sprigs, a bottle of Guinness Stout, and enough beef stock to bring the liquid half way up the meat. After braising covered at 325 for about and hour & a half they were falling off the bone tender.

I removed the meat & excess fat from the bones, strained, degreased & reduced/thickened the sauce. Put the meat back in the sauce to warm.

I served it over colcannon, but plain mashed potatoes would be great, too. Because of the Guinness, they were a little 'earthier' than a more typical tomato & wine braise.

MaryJo,

I took Ruhlman's Twenty out of the library, and there's a recipe for Braised Lamb Shanks with Lemon Confit that sounds really good.
