Does anyone have a good recipe for lamb shanks at all?

I'm curious, too (thus bumping this post), but I've never actually cooked with lamb. Any tips anyone has would be awesome!

I LOVE lamb. But I've never cooked it.

Here are a couple of recipes that look yummy to me. I haven't cooked lamb before, though. Real Simple and Epicurious are my fave recipe sources.

We are having lamb for Valentine's Day. Last year we had a leg of lamb, but this year we are going to try lamb shanks.

From what i read slow roasting seems to be the way to go. There are just a lot of different spice and vegetable options.

For what it's worth, my Mom makes an incredible leg of lamb with rosemary gravy. Delicious!!!

Marley, both of the recipes look good. That is what I'm so torn about, all the ones I've looked at are very different.

Cate - the leg of lamb last year was garlic and rosemary, it was really good.

I don't eat lamb, because I used to exhibit/show them at livestock fairs and Supermarkets don't sell them here, so were I to eat them I would essentially be eating a pet...I've heard they're incredibly fatty. Is this true?

Abigail - I don't each lamb much myself, it is BF's favourite though. These are actually frozen lamb shanks from New Zealand. I'm not sure how fatty they are though.

I heard it was a fatty meat but I think that depends on cut and how you cook it.

I've only eaten lamb in a gyro, regardless delicious.
