Description

Our Individual Lamb Shank is perfect for when you want to treat yourself to an impressive, restaurant-quality meal for one. A single bone-in shank, supplied frozen by Barlows' fourth-generation Nottinghamshire butchers it's a beautifully presented cut of lamb that rewards slow, patient cooking with truly spectacular results. The shank contains rich, flavourful meat wrapped around a central bone, with plenty of collagen that breaks down during braising to create a magnificent, glossy sauce. Simply defrost thoroughly before cooking, then braise in a covered pot with red wine, tomatoes, garlic, rosemary and thyme for two to two and a half hours until the meat is falling effortlessly from the bone. Serve the shank upright on a generous bed of creamy mashed potato with the reduced braising sauce spooned over the top and a scattering of fresh herbs. A genuinely stunning presentation for a solo dinner party or a well-deserved midweek treat. Looks like it took all day. Tastes even better. From Nottinghamshire's most trusted family butchery.
