How to cook Lamb Shanks - In the Oven - Recipes by Warren Nash

Bored of the usual leg of lamb on a Sunday afternoon? Check out my best lamb shank recipe, showing you how to cook it in the oven along with a lovely, glossy sauce as well.

This can also be done in the slow cooker by transferring the Lamb from the casserole instead of cooking them in the oven.

I've made this recipe the other night and it came out perfect. I skipped the wine (added plain water) and the beef stock(added salt & red/black pepper) and didn't have any fresh rosemary. Yet I followed the steps and I liked the taste very much. Thank u so much for sharing this with us. God bless!

I tried this method for my wife and I a few weeks ago. It's so good, we have friends around for dinner this evening and I'm cooking it for them. Great job, Warren.

I tried this and it was to die for! I can't wait to make them again!

[jeremymgood]

I made this tonight and it was outstanding. I didn't need to thicken the sauce at the end. I added parsnips as well as carrots. It was absolutely delicious. I served it on top of cheesy polenta with a glass of pinot noir.

I picked up some Lamb shanks on the reduced isle at the supermarket the other night. Looked up this recipe and it was so simple to follow. Only I used dry herbs instead of fresh. Really easy to make and full of flavour, will make it again, cheers Warren!
