Ingredients

  • 4 lamb shanks —you can get these from your butcher

  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced

  • 1 onion, roughly chopped

  • 2 carrots, roughly chopped

  • 1 tbsp tomato paste

  • 500ml passata

  • Handful rosemary, fresh is ideal but dried works well too

  • Handful thyme, fresh is ideal but dried works well too

  • 250ml water

  • Pinch of salt and pepper

Method

  1. Place the lamb shanks, garlic and vegetables in the slow cooker or alternatively, a large casserole dish.

  2. Mix the tomato paste, passata, herbs and water in a jug and pour over the shanks.

  3. Ensure the lamb shanks are fully covered by the mixture, if not add more water.

  4. If using a slow cooker set it to a high setting and cook for six hours.

  5. If using a casserole dish then preheat the oven to 140°C and cook for six hours.

  6. Place the cooked shanks onto warmed serving plates and enjoy with sides of your choice.
