This lamb stew is full of hearty flavorful ingredients, sure to fill you up on a cool evening or after a hard day's work.

Steps:
- Toss the lamb with the orange juice, garlic, ginger, and mint in a large bowl. Let marinate, covered, in the fridge for 4 hours.
- Dump the lamb into a colander set over a bowl to catch the marinade. Reserve the liquid. Dry the lamb very well with paper towels; if you don't, the pieces will steam, not sear. Generously season the lamb with salt and pepper.
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until very hot. Working in 3 or 4 batches, sear the lamb pieces, stirring occasionally, until browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a bowl. Return all the lamb to the pot, sprinkle with the flour, and stir to combine. Pour in the reserved marinade and the stock. Add the drained soaked beans (if using canned beans, add them in the next step), the carrots, bay leaves, cinnamon, oregano, star anise, coriander seeds, cumin, lemon zest, and lemon juice, cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1¼ hours, stirring occasionally.
- Spoon in the tomatoes and the canned beans, if using. Continue simmering, uncovered if the stew is thin, until the lamb is tender and the beans are soft but still hold their shape, 15 to 20 minutes more. Toss out the bay leaves, cinnamon sticks, and star anise. Take a taste and season the stew with salt and pepper, if needed.
- To serve, ladle into bowls and speckle with parsley.

Steps:
- Season the shanks with 1 teaspoon of the salt and freshly ground pepper. Heat the olive oil in a heavy, large skillet over medium-high heat. Add as many shanks as will fit without crowding. Brown the shanks well on all sides, about 10 minutes per batch. Set the browned shanks aside and repeat with the remaining shanks, pouring off the fat between batches.
- Place the garlic, onion, carrots and celery in the skillet and saute until softened, about 10 minutes. Pour in the wine and cook for about 2 minutes, scraping the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to loosen any browned bits.
- Transfer the vegetable and wine mixture to a large stockpot. Add the tomatoes and use the back of a spoon to break them into small chunks. Add the remaining ingredients, including the shanks. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, skimming as necessary, until the lamb and beans are very tender, about 2 hours. If the lamb is done before the beans, take out the shanks and cover with foil to keep them warm until the beans are done.
- Skim off as much fat from the top of the liquid as possible. Use tongs to remove the shanks from the liquid, placing 1 shank on each of 8 plates. Season the bean mixture with additional salt if needed. Discard rosemary and bay leaves. Using a slotted spoon, arrange some of the beans and vegetables around each shank. Spoon some of the liquid over and around the shank and serve immediately.
