Changed the recipe to serve 2 for my husband and myself. It was quick and easy to prepare and is definately a do again!
Lambshanks came out amazingly well! Meat was so tender juicy and falling off the bone - really melted in your mouth! Flavor was great - usually use red wine to make lamb shanks but white wine was delicious. Followed recipe exactly but omitted the olive oil when browning the lamb shank. The fat from the shanks browned themselves and then I drained most of the excess oil. Great recipe - thanks!
Absolutely melt in the mouth tender. I seared mine in the pan initially and then cooked it in my slow cooker with the liquid made as described.
Simply gorgeous they just dissolved in your mouth. I served them with roast potatoes and vegies. I poured some of the juices over the vegies at the end. Compliments all around from everyone. I was enjoying them so much I didn't want my plate to become empty. I will most definitely be cooking them again and I made no changes to the recipe.
November 2006. Followed recipe as given which is a switch for me. The white wine made for a different pairing with lamb but quite delicious. Served with pasta with greens and olives sauteed mushrooms and a simple salad. Much enjoyed by all!!
Very tasty!! My husband was drooling when he walked through the door. I couldn't let the wine "gravy" go to waste so I thickened it with a little flour so I could pour some over the lamb when I served it.
I stumbled on this recipe because I bought lamb shanks but had no idea how to cook them. Rosemary is one of my favorite herbs so this recipe caught my eye. The combination of Rosemary and lamb was perfect.
I make lamb shanks all the time, and this was a different "take" on one of our favorite meals. I actually put them in a crockpot with a little less wine to start. They came out beautifully moist and the meat fell off the bones. A real winner.
I really enjoyed making this recipe. i did however alter it a bit by using red wine instead of white that gave it a richer flavor. My husband is still talking about how good it was!!
This sauce does nothing to enhance the lamb flavor. In fact, the lamb completely overpowers it. The sauce would be good with lighter-flavored protein (such as fish or chicken), but just doesn't stand up well to lamb. I was totally disappointed!
