Sunday - Lamb shanks and chocolate biscuits

My son's girlfriend came to dinner tonight and as he had been super active with his umpiring duties, we had a yummy indulgent dinner of lamb shanks.

Main course:

Lamb shanks - $15 for 4
roast potato and sweet potato with garlic
Broccoli, peas and carrots

Recipe -
4 lamb shanks
2 med onions - chopped
3 cloves garlic - sliced
3 rashers bacon - chopped
1 jar of pasta sauce
1 tin italian diced tomatoes
500 ml water (or red wine)
olive oil

Pre-heat oven to 180 c. Put about a tablespoon and a half of olive oil into the bottom of a baking dish over heat and brown lamb shanks.  Remove from heat and add onion, garlic and bacon. Stir to evenly distribute. Pour pasta sauce and tomatoes over the top and add water.  Place on the bottom shelf of the oven and cook for 3 hours.

Dessert:
Selection of chocolate biscuits.

 Another new week begins. Hope it's a good one for us and you.

Eat well, Live well!
