Ingredients<\/h3>\n

\n
• 4\u00a0pounds\u00a0lamb shanks\u00a0Depending on size, 3-4 shanks. Preferably 4 at about 1 pound each.<\/li>\n
• 1 & 1\/2\u00a0tablespoons\u00a0garam masala<\/li>\n
• kosher or sea salt<\/li>\n
• freshly ground pepper<\/li>\n
• 4\u00a0tablespoons\u00a0avocado oil, coconut oil, or ghee, divided<\/li>\n
• 2-4\u00a0cups\u00a0Daikon radish, cubed\u00a0Carolyn suggests 2 cups. I would double it.<\/li>\n
• 2-4\u00a0cups\u00a0eggplant, peeled and cubed\u00a0Again, Carolyn suggests 2 cups and I would double it.<\/li>\n
• 1\/2\u00a0cup\u00a0onion, chopped<\/li>\n
• 1\u00a0cup\u00a0beef broth<\/li>\n
• 1\u00a0tablespoon\u00a0tomato paste<\/li>\n
• 1\/4\u00a0teaspoon\u00a0red pepper flakes<\/li>\n
• 2\u00a0tablespoons\u00a0fresh cilantro leaves, chopped, for garnish – optional<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Instructions<\/h3>\n

  \n
  1. \n

     Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

     Pat the lamb shanks dry with paper towels and rub all over with garam masala. Season generously with salt and pepper.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

     Heat a large Dutch oven on the stovetop, then add 2 tablespoons of oil\/ghee on medium heat and heat until shimmering. Add the lamb shanks and brown them on both sides, about 4 minutes per side.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. \n

     Transfer the lamb to a plate and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to the pot. Add the cubed daikon and eggplant, and the chopped onions. Saut\u00e9 until the onions are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the broth, tomato paste, and red pepper flakes and bring the sauce to a boil.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  5. \n

     Nestle the lamb shanks in the sauce and vegetables. Cover the pot and transfer it to the oven. Cook for 2 hours, turning the shanks over once, halfway through cooking. When done, the lamb shanks should be tender and the meat should easily come away from the bone.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  6. \n

     Serve garnished with cilantro if desired. Store leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     Recipe Notes<\/h3>\n

     Garam masala\u00a0is not a single spice – it is a blend. Homemade would be lovely. If you use store-bought, use a\u00a0fresh, high quality blend.\u00a0<\/p>\n

     When browning the lamb shanks, if your Dutch oven isn’t large enough to accommodate all of them with a bit of room between them, do them in 2 batches.\u00a0<\/p>\n

     I found that you can freeze the lamb shanks in the sauce.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
