Latest revision as of 18:13, 8 December 2022

Only this morning we mentioned that we hadn't had lamb shanks for a while, then this afternoon as I was thumbing through some old cookbooks, this recipe jumped out at me from my 1986 "The Manhattan Chili Co. Southwest American Cookbook. I have amended it to use a slow cooker and for once, used commercial curry powder rather than a homemade blend.

Update

The ingredients shown below have been much reduced from the original recipe because, to my taste, it was almost bitter. To rescue the meal, I discarded all of the original gravy and served it with potatoes, carrots, peas and a normal onion gravy. It still had a little of the curry bite so was not a complete disaster. The lamb shanks were perfectly cooked and delicious.

If you do make this, taste the gravy and adjust the seasoning before the extended cooking period.
