Lamb Tagine With Prunes

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I found this elsewhere (twice) and it looks as though you're better to cook the shanks the day before you plan to eat, refrigerating them and the stock to make removing the fat easier. It looks a bit fiddly, but I love shanks, so I'm going to try it soon. I can only guess at prep time, and haven't included any refrigeration in that! I have posted a recipe for a simple Ras el hanout mix (although I got mine for Christmas;-)).
