Lamb shanks bursting with bold Indian spices for incredible flavor.
Ingredients:
  • 18.20 gm peanut oil
  • 4 large (about 2kg) lamb shanks, French trimmed
  • 2 brown onions, halved, thickly sliced
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) curry paste, thawed
  • 2 x 400g cans diced tomatoes
  • 750ml (3 cups) beef stock
  • 62.50 ml fresh curry leaves
  • 1 x 200g ctn natural yoghurt
  • 250.00 ml coarsely chopped fresh coriander
  • Naan bread, to serve
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 160°C. Heat half of the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish over high heat. Sear 2 lamb shanks by cooking and turning for 5 minutes until browned. Transfer to a heatproof bowl and repeat with remaining shanks.
  • - Heat the rest of the oil in the dish over medium heat. Sauté the onion until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the curry paste and cook until aromatic, about 1 minute. Add the lamb shanks back into the dish along with the tomato, stock, and curry leaves. Bring to a boil, then transfer to the oven and bake covered, turning occasionally, until the lamb is tender, about 2 hours. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes, then season with salt and pepper.
  • In a bowl, mix yoghurt with 1 tablespoon of lamb mixture until combined. Gradually add more lamb mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring after each addition, until yoghurt is warm. Combine yoghurt mixture with the lamb mixture, then stir in the coriander.
  • Portion the delicious lamb shank curry into individual bowls and serve promptly with warm and fluffy naan bread.
