I made the most delicious lamb shanks in the DreamPot. The sauce is so yummy. Now I admit that the shanks could have done with some longer cooking as they weren't quite as tender as hoped, so I have adapted the recipe sot it works better for you! I will certainly be cooking this again! it was so yummy!
2 lamb shanks (1 per person)
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 brown onion, halved, thinly sliced
1/8 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 cup port
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
1 cup spicy plum sauce
2 Tablespoon cornflour

1 cup spicy plum sauce
2 Tablespoon cornflour
- Heat 2T oil & fry shanks, turning, in batches, for 4 to 5 minutes or until browned. Reheat remaining oil & add onion, rosemary and thyme. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until onion is tender.

Hi Michelle. This sounds like a great recipe. I don't have a DreamPot but I think I might try this is the Slow Cooker where I usually cook lamb shanks. Lindy
ReplyDeleteHi Lindy. I adapted the recipe from a slow cooking recipe in the first place, so it should work. It is certainly very tasty! The brand of the Plum Sauce is SPC and it comes in a glass jar with a lime green lid - not a bottle & can be found in the sauce section. (PS It doesn't say Spicy any more!)
