• 總時間: 1 hour 30 minutes

食材

4 lamb shanks about 5 pounds

1/3 cup oil

3 large onions

about 6 golden potatoes

3 carrots

3 celery ribs

2 tbsp. paprika

1 tbsp. black pepper

2 tbsp. Salt

about 6 minced garlic cloves

about 6 dried bay leaves

步驟

Rinse and pat dry the lamb shanks. Remove any excess fat.

Season both sides of each lamb shank with salt and pepper, massaging the seasoning in.

Heat oil in a large braiser or oven-safe pan over medium heat.

Add chopped onions to the heated oil and fry until slightly darker than golden brown.

Place lamb shanks on top of the onions, allowing them to release their juices and flavors. Sear on both sides, flipping occasionally.

Cover the lamb shanks with water and sprinkle seasonings on top. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.

Add chunks of potatoes, carrots, and celery on top, covering the lamb shanks.

Cook for about 1 hour on low to medium heat.

Remove from the stove and cover with parchment paper and foil to prevent contact with toxins.

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the covered pan in the oven for about 2 1/2 hours.

In the last half hour, remove the foil and parchment to allow the shanks to brown.

Serve and enjoy! This stew can also be made ahead of time and frozen for later consumption.
