Lamb Shank Braised In White Wine With Rosemary Recipes

BRAISED LAMB SHANKS WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Sprinkle shanks with salt and pepper. Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add shanks to pot and cook until brown on all sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer shanks to bowl.
• Add onions, carrots and garlic to pot and sauté until golden, about 10 minutes. Stir in all remaining ingredients. Return shanks to pot, pressing down to submerge. Bring liquids to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover; simmer until meat is tender, about 2 hours.
• Uncover pot; simmer until meat is very tender, about 30 minutes longer. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill until cold; cover and keep chilled. Rewarm over medium heat before continuing.) Transfer shanks to platter; tent with foil. Boil juices in pot until thickened, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon over shanks.

SLOW-BRAISED LAMB SHANKS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown shanks well in oil; this will take as long as half an hour (you can cover the pan to avoid spattering). Sprinkle with salt and pepper as they cook.
• Lower the heat, pour off the excess fat, add the wine or stock. Simmer over low heat for 1½ to 2 hours, covered, turning and adding water, about ¼ cup at a time, as necessary, until the meat is falling of the bone.
• Cool. Take meat off the bone and reserve the liquid. When the liquid is cool, skim the fat and reserve the juice. Use meat and juice in the following recipes: Tomato Sauce With Lamb and Pasta; Indian Lamb Curry With Basmati Rice; Chinese Braised Lamb Shanks.

BRAISED LAMB SHANKS WITH TOMATOES AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Pat the lamb shanks dry, season them with salt and pepper, and in a large heavy kettle brown them, 3 at a time, in the oil over moderately high heat, transferring them as they are browned to a roasting pan just large enough to hold them in one layer. To the kettle add the onion, cook it over moderate heat, stirring, until it is softened, and stir in the garlic. Cook the mixture for 3 minutes, stir in the tomatoes, the wine, the broth, the dried rosemary, the allspice, and salt and pepper to taste, and bring the sauce to a boil. Ladle the sauce over the lamb shanks. Braise the shanks, covered tightly with foil, in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 1 1/2 hours, or until they are tender, transfer them to a heatproof platter, and keep them warm, covered. Pour the sauce into the kettle, cleaned, and boil it for 10 minutes, or until it is reduced to about 4 cups. The lamb shanks and the sauce may be made 2 days in advance, cooled to room temperature, and both kept in the roasting pan, covered and chilled. Heat the lamb shanks in the sauce in a preheated 350°F. oven until they are hot and transfer the shanks to the heatproof platter. Into the sauce stir 2 teaspoons of the parsley and 2 teaspoons of the fresh rosemary. Divide the shanks among 6 heated plates, spoon the sauce over them, and sprinkle it with the remaining parsley and fresh rosemary.

LAMB SHANK BRAISED IN WHITE WINE WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• In a large frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add shanks to hot pan, and brown all sides; this should take about 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Reduce heat to medium-low, and add garlic to the pan; cook for 30 to 40 seconds. Stir in onion, and continue cooking until translucent, 6 to 8 minutes. Return shanks to the pan, and season with 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary and salt and pepper to taste. Pour in wine, raise heat to medium-high, and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer until the shanks are very tender when pierced with a knife, 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Turn once or twice during cooking, and add water as necessary to maintain original level of liquid. Serve shanks garnished with rosemary sprigs.

BRAISED LAMB SHANKS WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350ºF.
• Season the lamb shanks with salt and pepper. In a large, deep pan (I like to use my Le Creuset dutch oven) over a medium-high flame, warm the olive oil and then brown the shanks on all sides, about 5 minutes in all.
• Transfer the shanks to a dish.
• Add the onions, carrots, and celery to the pan and cook until onions are translucent.
• Add the wine to the pan, and bring to a simmer, stirring up any bits off the bottom.
• Add the stock, rosemary, garlic, bay leaf and shanks to the pan and bring to a boil.
• Place the lid on the pan, and put it in the preheated oven. Cook about 2 hours. Serve with mashed potatoes or rice and a nice salad.

BRAISED LAMB SHANKS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Pour the oil in a casserole dish or roasting tray large enough to fit all the shanks. With the pan set over a high heat on the hob, spend a good 10 mins browning the lamb all over.
• Remove the lamb, add the onion and carrot and cook for 10 mins until starting to brown. Stir in the herbs and garlic and cook for a few mins more. Stir in the flour and tomato purée, season well then pour over the wine and stock.
• Return the lamb shanks to the pan. Bring to a simmer, cover with a lid or tightly with foil and cook in the oven, undisturbed, for 1½-2 hrs until lamb is tender. Remove the lamb from the sauce and set aside.
• Put pan back on the hob and bubble the sauce down for about 15 mins until rich and glossy. Pass through a sieve into a jug. The lamb and sauce can be stored in the fridge for two days or frozen for one month. To serve, reheat the lamb in the sauce, adding a splash of water if the sauce is too thick.

LAMB BRAISED IN WHITE WINE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F
• Melt the butter in a frying pan and add a dash of olive oil. Put the garlic and rosemary (or thyme) in the pan and fry for a few minutes on a low heat to flavour the oil and butter. Using a slotted spoon, remove the herbs and garlic and set aside.
• Season the lamb steaks with salt and pepper. Fry the lamb to brown it on both sides. Add the halves of garlic and allow them to colour slightly in the pan. Transfer everything to a roasting tin, along with the reserved herbs and sliced garlic.
• Heat the wine in a small saucepan and then pour it over the lamb. Cover the tin with foil and place in the oven to cook for 45 minutes - 1 hour, or until the meat is meltingly tender.
• Once cooked, remove the meat, cover and keep warm. Set the garlic halves aside too. If the liquid doesn't look thick enough for a sauce, strain the wine and cooking juices into a saucepan, squeezing the juices from the rosemary and garlic skins.
• Simmer the juices until thickened. To thicken the sauce even more, you can mix together equal quantities of flour and butter in a small bowl. Whisk this mixture into the sauce and cook until the taste of flour is removed. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve the lamb with the baked garlic, mashed potatoes and the sauce poured over.

BRAISED LAMB SHANKS WITH WHITE BEANS

Steps:

• Make small incisions in the lamb shanks and stud them with the slivers of garlic. Sprinkle the lamb with the rosemary. Coat the shanks with two tablespoons of the olive oil, cover, and marinate overnight in the refrigerator. Soak the beans overnight in cold water to cover.
• Rinse the beans, put them in a large saucepan and cover them with fresh water. Add an onion, chopped, the herb bouquet, and salt and pepper. Simmer for about an hour, or until the beans are tender.
• Heat remaining olive oil in a large pan and brown the lamb shanks on all sides. Remove the shanks and pour off the fat.
• Chop the remaining onions and add them to the pan. Cook gently until the onions are soft. Add the carrots, wine, lamb shanks and stock. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for an hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Drain beans, reserving cooking liquid. In a large casserole, put a layer of beans, a layer of salt pork, the vegetables and the juice from the shanks and then the shanks. Add remaining beans and juices. If the stew is too dry, add some of the liquid from the beans. Bake one hour.
• Sprinkle with bread crumbs and butter and bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes longer. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve.

BRAISED LAMB SHANKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place the onions in a layer in the bottom of a Dutch oven or medium roasting pan with a lid. Arrange the lamb shanks on top of the onions. Pour the wine, balsamic vinegar and olive oil over the lamb. Place a clove of pressed garlic next to each shank, and a quarter of a lemon on each side. Pour the tomatoes over everything, then season with salt, pepper and basil.
• Cover and place in the preheated oven. Cook for 3 hours. Use juices from the pan to make a nice flavorful gravy.
