INGREDIENTS
1 piece Lamb Shank (150g portion)
1/2 medium Carrot (approx. 30g)
1 small Parsnip (approx. 50g)
1/2 medium Turnip (approx. 40g)
1/2 small Onion (approx. 30g)
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 sprig Fresh Rosemary
1 sprig Fresh Thyme
1 Bay Leaf
PREPARATION
Pat the lamb shank dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a heavy, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Sear the lamb shank on all sides until browned, approximately 3 minutes per side.
Add the roughly chopped garlic, half a sliced carrot, diced parsnip, chopped turnip, and sliced onion to the pot.
Toss in the fresh rosemary, thyme, and bay leaf. Stir to coat vegetables in the oil and lamb juices.
Pour a small amount of water or low-sodium broth (about 1/4 cup) to create a bit of steam and help with braising.
Reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and let everything simmer gently for 1.5 to 2 hours or until the lamb is tender and the flavors meld together.
Check occasionally to ensure there is enough liquid; add a splash more water if needed.
Once tender, remove the bay leaf and herb sprigs before serving. Plate the lamb shank with a portion of the braised root vegetables.
