Andrew's Tender Lamb Shanks image

My husband came up with this recipe and it makes a very tender piece of lamb. It was based on a Gordon Ramsay recipe, but to make Gordon's version you'll want to throw in a carrot and more garlic, leave out the cloves and cook it entirely on the stove top. He also recommends serving it with mashed parsnip but we like traditional potatoes.

Time 3h15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lamb shanks, french trimmed
1/2 onion, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste
3 stalks celery, roughly chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
2 bay leaves
4 -6 cloves
300 ml dry white wine
1 liter chicken stock
4 tablespoons flour or 4 tablespoons cornstarch
4 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Heat a little olive oil in a large pan.
  • Season the lamb and brown the shanks all over in the oil, then take out of the pan and set aside.
  • Add the onion, celery, garlic, bay leaves and cloves and cook gently until browned.
  • Pour in the wine and continue cooking until it has reduced down to a syrup.
  • Put the contents of the frying pan into a baking dish along with the shanks and pour over the stock.
  • Season again to taste.
  • Cover the baking dish and cook in a low heat in the oven (about 150 C) for 2-1/2 to 3 hours, until the meat is tender.
  • Take the dish out of the oven.
  • Transfer the lamb to a plate and cover to keep warm.
  • Strain the stock into a frying pan or small saucepan and heat until simmering.
  • Mix the flour and water together until there are no lumps and then add to the stock, allowing to cook until you have a gravy that is thick to your liking.
  • Place the lamb shanks on a bed of mashed potatoes and pour the gravy over.
