This is a slow cooker recipe!

Ingredients

• 4 lamb shanks
• 2 tbsp Broighter Gold Rosemary and Garlic Rapeseed Oil
• 250ml red wine
• 5 tbsp Strawberry and Mint Infused Balsamic Vinegar

• 3 leeks, sliced
• 3 carrots, peeled and sliced
• 3 sprigs fresh rosemary

Method

1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan, and fry the lamb shanks until browned all over.
2. Place into the slow cooker.
3. Deglaze the frying pan with the Balsamic Vinegar, add the red wine and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes until the volume of liquid has reduced by half. Pour into the slow cooker. Add the vegetables, rosemary and bay leaves and then the stock. The liquid should cover the meat. (Add more stock if needed)
