Braised Lamb Shanks with Rosemary

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Casseroles & One-Dish Meals Meat

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 lamb shanks -- external fat trimmed
Salt and freshly ground pepper -- to taste
2 Tbs. olive oil
2 yellow onions -- diced
2 celery stalks -- diced
2 carrots -- diced
2 cups full-bodied red wine
1 cup beef stock
1 Tbs. dried rosemary
3 garlic cloves -- crushed with the side
a knife
1 bay leaf

Preheat an oven to 350ºF.

Season the lamb shanks with salt and pepper. In a large, deep sauté pan
over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil until nearly smoking. Working
in batches if needed, brown the shanks on all sides, about 5 minutes
total. Transfer to a platter.

Add the onions, celery and carrots to the pan and cook, stirring
occasionally, until the vegetables are golden and translucent, 3 to 5
minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, add the wine and return the pan
to medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring to scrape up any
browned bits from the pan bottom. Add the stock, rosemary, garlic, bay
leaf and shanks and bring to a boil. Cover the pan, transfer to the oven
and cook until the meat is almost falling off the bone, about 2 hours.
Using tongs, transfer the shanks to a large serving bowl.

Remove the bay leaf from the cooking liquid. Using a blender or a stick
blender, puree the liquid and solids until smooth. Season the sauce with
salt and pepper. Pour some of the sauce over the shanks and pass the
rest alongside.
