Ingredients
1 large carrot
1 parsnip
2 tomatoes
6 oz. veal/chicken stock
2 tablespoons tomato paste
juice and grated rind of 1 lemon
pinch of sugar
2 tablespoons parsley
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
seasoned flour(for dusting)
1 onion
1 stick of celery
1 cup red wine
2 tablespoons basil
2 cups mashed potatoes
Dust the shanks in flour and brown them in butter and oil in a
heavy skillet or fry pan. Put the cooked shanks in a saucepan,
cover with water, wine, and tomato paste and cook ever so gently
for about 90 min or until meat starts to soften (you may have to
add a little more water or wine.)
In the meantime, saute the vegetables (roughly chopped) with
the garlic in the same frying pan; you may have to add a little
more oil. After a couple of minutes add the tomatoes (roughly
chopped), lemon juice and rind. Cook gently for another few minutes.
Transfer partly cooked lamb shanks into a casserole dish. Skim
off any fat formed during cooking. Add the cooked vegetables,
mix lightly, add the fresh herbs, spoon mashed potatoes on top
and finish cooking in a pre heated 190 degree oven for about
30 minutes. Serve piping hot with crusty bread

This was the first time that I ever made lamb shanks. My guests loved it. It is a gourmet meal so don't do what I did and start it an hour before dinner!.
