I do the shanks in the slow cooker because I love the fall-off-the-bone tenderness this method produces. If you'd like to give that a go, just follow the recipe up to step 8 and then, instead of putting the pan in the oven transfer it all to the slow cooker.
If you get your shanks going in the morning you can enjoy their delicious aroma all day. Absolutely scrummy!
what you need
4 shanks of lamb
sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp coriander seeds
1 small dried red chili
tsp dried marjoram, or, oregano
1 tbsp flour
1 tbsp olive oil
1 clove of garlic, finely chopped
1 large carrot, quartered, finely, sliced
6 sticks celery, quartered, finely, sliced
2 large onion, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh rosemary
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
170 ml dry white wine
6 anchovy, fillets
2 x 400g tins of plum tomatoes
1 handful fresh basil, roughly, chopped
what to do
- Season the lamb with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Smash up the coriander seeds and dried chilli and mix with the dried marjoram. Roll the lamb in this mixture, pressing it in well. Dust the lamb with the flour.
- Heat a thick-bottomed casserole pan, add the oil, brown the meat on all sides and then remove from the pan.
- Add the garlic, carrot, celery, onions the chopped rosemary and a pinch of salt and sweat them until softened.
- Add the balsamic vinegar and allow it to reduce to a syrup.
- Pour in the white wine and allow to simmer for 2 minutes.
- Add the anchovies (these really seem to intensify the lamb flavour) and then add the tinned tomatoes, kept whole. Shake the pan and return the lamb to it.
- Bring to the boil, put on the lid and simmer in the oven at 180 C/350 F for 1.5 - 2 hours, then remove the lid and cook for a further half an hour.
- Skim off any fat and taste for seasoning. Finally, stir in a handful of roughly chopped fresh basil, marjoram or flat-leaf parsley.

I'll vouch for it! Absolutely yummy. Jamie does excellent 'eat in pyjamas in front of fire' food.
Another goodie is his Fantastic Fish Pie. Have you tried it? Fabulous the next day too. If you Google it, you'll find it.

Tuesday, as luck would have it I've already posted that recipe. Loved, loved, loved it.
For those who missed it first time around, it's here: http://domesticgoddessonlplates.blogspot.com/2009/05/cracking-good-sunday-dinner.html
I have yet to attempt cooking lamb-- but I really want to make this!
Florida Girl, that's a familiar refrain if I'm not mistaken...do I need to come down there and make you cook lamb? Once you do, you'll never look back (promise!) xox
I love it.. Have you tried it?
Hey Blogspan, absolutely...it's a winter staple at our house...never fails to impress!
wow...that looks yummy...i am going to try and make something like this tomorrow
I would love to try the slow cooker method. How long do I have to put it in the slow cooker? Thank you :-)
great post, I really like it. Thanks for posting. :)
I've tried this recipe with the shanks and it was delicious. I'm making it for my family tonight, but my mother and sister both have an issue with meat on a bone (ie lamb shanks) do you think this would work if i substituted with cubed casserole beef?
You could cook it as lamb shanks in the slow cooker, and then remove the meat from the bone before serving. The meat will just fall off the bone anyway
Made Jamie's spicy lamb shanks years ago, when his first book came out, never made it since, and I can still taste it now, gonna make it tomorrow night
No, don't do it!!! Just remove from the bone once cooked and serve it to them like that :) so much more tender and flavoursome cooked on the bone.
I really had a great time stopping by your site, it gives me a lot of information. You can also visit my site, thank you!
