Ingredients Needed:
For a complete experience, you’ll need the following ingredients:
• 2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped.
• 1 white onion, sliced into thin strips.
• 2 stalks of green onions, finely chopped.
• 1 lemon, to add freshness.
• Oil of your choice, for sautéing.
• 1 sprig of rosemary, for an aromatic touch.
• Spices: Salt, pepper, cumin, paprika, turmeric, and cinnamon, to taste.
Step-by-Step Preparation:
1. Sauté the Ingredients:
In a large pot, heat some oil and add the garlic, white onion, and green onions. Sauté until golden and fragrant.
2. Prepare the Lamb Shanks:
Add the lamb shanks to the pot and generously season with the spices. Squeeze the lemon juice over the meat to infuse it with freshness and flavor. Cook for a few minutes, turning the shanks to sear them well on all sides.
3. Add Liquid and Rosemary:
Pour enough water to cover the lamb shanks and add the sprig of rosemary. This step ensures the stew stays juicy and flavorful.
4. Slow Cooking:
Cover the pot and cook on medium-low heat for approximately 2 hours. This allows the meat to become tender, juicy, and packed with flavor.
Additional Tips:
• You can serve this dish with mashed potatoes, white rice, or even a fresh salad.
• For a creamier touch, add a bit of cream or yogurt at the end of cooking. I do it with red pepper rice and sauté vegetables.
This lamb shank is the perfect recipe to enjoy with family or to surprise your guests. Its blend of spices, the fresh touch of lemon, and the tenderness of the meat make it an unforgettable culinary experience.
