Braised Lamb Shanks

Braised Lamb Shanks by Patrick Travis

It was a dark and stormy night….well, it snowed about 1 foot last night, and I was in the mood for a warm hearty stew. When I looked in the freezer, what should I find but two beautiful lamb shanks, about 1 ½ lbs. each. I was looking for some stew meat so this was like Christmas. As soon as I saw this treat I decided on a braise…

Lamb Shanks with Orzo and Vegetables

Lamb Shanks with Orzo and Vegetables by Jason Freund

A delicious Mediterranean one pot wonder meal that combines a tomato base with orzo pasta, veggies, and lamb shank. The hard part is finding the largest possible large lamb shanks. Restaurants seem to have no problem getting 1.5lb+ shanks, but I'm lucky to find 0.80lb shanks at most grocery stores. If I have to make due with…

Braised Lamb w Flageolets & Winter Vegetables by Cindy McNamara

Boneless leg of lamb butterflied and packed with a garlic herb paste then braised. Winter root vegetables and heirloom beans added towards the end of a 3-4 hour braise. Comfort food with a Provencal flavor. I'm serving it up tonight with lightly dressed green salad, crusty bread and red wine.

Lamb Tagine with Tomatoes and Roasted Eggplant

Lamb Tagine with Tomatoes and Roasted Eggplant by John Spottiswood

This is a Mediterranean spirited Tagine. It reminds me of the great lamb stews found from Morocco all the way to Afghanistan. I adapted it from a recipe in Paula Wolfort's great "The Food of Morocco" cookbook. Paula quotes chef Lucien Vanel as saying "Lamb, tomatoes, eggplant and garlic is a a combination before which we must all…
