Lamb Shanks In Red Wine Sauce

 I loved lamb, usually we ate grilled lamp chops. But i want to change that menu to something new.

So i bought this lamb shanks, only 2 pieces, because we only 2 person at home, me and my husband. And Ethan has his own meal.

I am not red wine person or any other drinks, coz i just can't drink it. Make me dizzy hehehehe

So simple to cook it, i just put all in my slow cooker, and stirring for sometime.

Ingredients:

• 1 medium large onion, chopped (original used 1 large onion)
• 150 gr button mushroom, sliced ( i used half can of mushroom)
• 2 cups red wine ( i only used 1 cup, coz i can imagine myself while eat this food ^-^)
• 1 cup chicken stock
• 1/4 tomato paste
• 4 trimmed lamb shank ( i only used 2 lamb shank)
• potato, peel, and cut into medium size ( no potato in original recipe )
• carrot, peel and cut into medium size ( no carrot in original recipe)

Method:

1. Heat the pan, and fry lamb shanks until browned.
2. Switch on your slow cooker, put lamb shank in there and all the ingredients. I set up my slow cooker on high, cook for 3-4 hours, stirring for sometime, and don't forget season with salt and pepper.
3. Serve with rice

Method in Original Recipe:

1. Saute onion in a heated lightly oiled, large frypan until just softened. Add mushrooms and saute for a further minute. Stir in the wine, stock and tomato paste and bring to the boil.
2. Place lamb shank in a large casserole dish and pour the hot wine mixture over them. Cover dish with lid and bake in 180 degrees C preheated oven for 1 1/2 hours turning the shanks halfway during cooking time.
3. Remove shanks from wine sauce, cover and keep warm. Pour wine sauce into saucepan and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes or until reduced and thickened slightly. Serve lamb shanks and red wine sauce with mashed potato.
