    Lamb Shanks in Honeyed Prune Sauce, A delicious meal for two, worth saving for a special occasion The long cooking time allows you to set the scene ie light the candles and open the bottle of Rioja The sauce is quite rich and needs only a simple accompaniment such as couscous or plain mashed potatoes and steamed green beans , These were delicious!
