Lamb shank is the leg of the lamb. A little tread muscle, but with a little time this becomes so juicy and tender. It is no longer a job to make lamb shanks, it just takes a little more time. Serve with Gremolata and some good potatoes so this is truly a feast. You get the pleasure of the smell that spreads from the oven long before you have dinner. It's just to enjoy. Buy Lamb shanks of good quality and which have not been frozen.
Step 1
Start by rolling the lamb shanks in wheat flour mixed well with salt and pepper. Find a large good frying pan and fry the lamb shanks on high heat until they get a little frying crust in the pan. I made the same recipe for someone who could not tolerate wheat flour and it works well just to season with salt and pepper as well. When they are done cooking, place them neatly aside on a plate. To get the good flavors that settle in the pan, pour on a little water that you boil for a few minutes. Mix this water with the broth you are going to pour into the pan later.
Step 2
Find a good pan and add finely chopped carrots, onions, celery, celery sticks and garlic. Fry in oil on medium heat for a few minutes until it becomes a little softer to get a golden color. Then you pour in the white wine and let it reduce until there is only a little left.
Step 3
Find a large pan and set the oven at 150 degrees. Place half of the sauce from the pan in the bottom of the pan and place the fried lamb shanks well into the sauce. Pour over the rest of the sauce and use a spoon and make sure that all the shanks have had a good sauce on them.
Step 4
You now have a very good time preparing potatoes. Serve with mashed potatoes or fried potato boats and an accessory you must bring is Gremolata. It is the perfect accessory for Lamb Shanks. Finely chop parsley and mix with grated lemon peel and very finely chopped garlic.
Pour over lots of the good sauce left in the pan.
