Time 3h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 lamb shanks
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
3 to 4 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
1 medium onion, peeled and cut in large pieces
4 ribs celery, cut in 3/4-inch slices
2 carrots, peeled and cut in 3/4-inch slices
2 1/2 cups red wine
2 small bay leaves
4 anchovy fillets
1 1/4 cups veal or beef stock
1 35-ounce can Italian plum tomatoes, strained and crushed
12 black peppercorns
Bean puree (see recipe)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Season shanks with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large saute pan. Put 3 shanks in the pan and brown well on all sides. Transfer shanks to a large roasting pan. Repeat with remaining shanks, adding oil if needed.
  • Put garlic, onion, celery and carrot in the pan. Cook 30 seconds. Add half the wine and deglaze the pan. Add the vegetable-wine mixture to the roasting pan. Add the remaining ingredients. Put the roasting pan on a burner and bring to a simmer. (Shanks should be almost covered with liquid; if necessary, add water.) Cover with aluminum foil. Put in oven and bake until meat is very tender, about 2 1/2 hours.
  • Remove shanks from liquid and keep warm. Strain liquid through a fine sieve into a large saucepan. Degrease. Simmer until sauce is thick enough to coat a spoon. Season with salt and pepper. Put shanks over a mound of bean puree and top with sauce.
