Directions
Slow Cooked Moroccan Lamb Shanks, I have another recipe for Moroccan lamb shanks that we really enjoy, but I thought I would experiment a bit more the other day with some more flavours. We really enjoyed how they turned out and for us the flavour had just the right amount of spice. I cooked ours on the stove top on a really low heat for about 4 1/2-5 Hours and the lamb came out falling off the bone as lamb shanks should. I am not sure how long these would need in a slow cooker as I do not own one, so if anyone does them that way please let me know., Just had to add my own kudos for this recipe. So simple yet the flavors were delicately balanced and the aroma was heavenly. Destined to become a favorite at my house., Excellent, excellent, excellent – I wish I could give it more stars – the flavors meld together so wonderfully – a bit of bite, a bit of sweet melds so well with the lamb. I didn’t have any shanks on hand, but I did have a boneless leg of lamb that worked so well – after 5 hours of slow cooking it was tender enough to separate with a fork. I also substituted chicken stock for the water. Served over jasmine rice as DH doesn’t like cousous at all, rice only a bit better but I felt this needed to be served with one or the other. Can’t wait to get some shanks and prepare this again. Thank you so much for posting my new go to lamb recipe Flying Chef :
