How We Make It At Our Kitchen
- The secret is really good quality lamb. We start by seasoning and leaving it to marinate overnight in rosemary and our local, Great Taste Award-winning rapeseed oil. Then the lamb is roasted in the oven for an hour to add some colour.
- Next our chefs braise the shanks with onion, celery and garlic, lots of good red wine, and plenty of rosemary and thyme. They are left to braise for up to 2½ hours, during which they are checked individually by the chef to ensure they are cooked to perfection, until they are deliciously tender, with the meat almost falling off the bone.
- Finally, we make the sauce using the braising stock and some redcurrant jelly, to add a touch of sweetness.
Dinner Party Tip
- Spoon our Creamy Mash just off-centre of the plate
- Rest the lamb shank on the plate with the bone on top of the potato
- Pour over the jus and add Braised Red Cabbage to the side
