ROSEMARY BRAISED LAMB SHANKS



Rosemary Braised Lamb Shanks image

Lamb shanks are slowly simmered with fresh rosemary, garlic, tomatoes, and red wine. Great served with polenta, or my family's favorite--roasted garlic mashed potatoes--as you need something to soak up the wonderful sauce. A fantastic dish for company, as all the prep work is done at the beginning, and then you just have to wait.

A braise is like a stew, but requires less liquid and has a longer cooking time. Allow about two and a half hours for the lamb to cook on top of the stove. Serve green beans and the polenta with it. Pour a Cabernet Sauvignon.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality lamb shanks. Look for shanks that are meaty and have a good amount of marbling. You can also ask your butcher to select the best shanks for you.
  • Brown the lamb shanks before braising them. This will help to develop their flavor and create a richer sauce.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your braising liquid. This will add flavor and depth to the dish. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, and tomatoes.
  • Add some herbs and spices to your braising liquid. This will help to infuse the lamb shanks with flavor. Some good options include rosemary, thyme, bay leaves, and black peppercorns.
  • Braise the lamb shanks for at least 2 hours, or until they are fall-off-the-bone tender. The longer you braise them, the more tender they will be.
  • Serve the lamb shanks with your favorite sides. Some good options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.
