3
Lamb Shanks
2 Tbsp
Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
1 med
Yellow Onion
diced
2
Carrots
cut into chunks
2 stalks
Celery
cut into chunks
2
Garlic Cloves
minced
1 tsp
Sea Salt
1 tsp
Black Pepper
14 oz
Canned Crushed Tomato
4 cups
Beef Stock
1 cup
Filtered Water
3 sprigs
Fresh Rosemary
9
Fingerling Potatoes
halved
1 tsp
Tapioca Flour
1
In a large deep pot or dutch oven, add olive oil and turn the stove on to medium-high heat.
2
Once the pot is heated, add the lamb shanks and brown well on each side. Once browned, remove from pot and set aside.
3
Add onions and garlic and sauté for about 3-5 minutes. Stir occasionally. If needed, add a little bit of water if things start to stick.
4
Add the carrots and celery and sauté for 4-5 minutes or until they soften.
5
Add the lamb shanks back in and season generously with sea salt and black pepper.
6
Add the can of crushed tomatoes, beef broth, water and stir. Lastly, add the rosemary.
7
Cover and turn the heat down to medium-low until you get a nice rolling simmer, not bubbling too much. Halfway through, add the potatoes in.
8
Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2.5-3 hours or until the lamb is falling off the bone and the vegetables and potatoes are soft. Check on it every 15-20 minutes or so just to make sure there is enough liquid.
9
The liquid will start to thicken up on its own. If you need to, add a teaspoon of tapioca starch to a bowl or glass with a few tablespoons of liquid from the pot. Mix it and add it back in the pot.
10
Plate the lamb shanks with the vegetables and potatoes. Add a few tablespoons of sauce from the pan on top.
11
Store any leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
