This was one of the best meals I have tasted. The family gave it 10/10. I was a bit scared as it looked fancy and I have never cooked with lamb shanks before bit it was so easy especially done in the crock pot. It was like set and forget LOVE IT
Hi, is there another herb that would work in the couscous? Im not much of a cook, but I dont like coriander and not the biggest fan of the texture of parsley. ..pretty much the only 2 herbs I don't eat. This sounds delish, I have been looking for a good shanks recipe
I'm about to have baby #2 and would like to pre-prepare some of these in the freezer for easy meal options (they look amazing!!). Would you recommend getting everything ready and combined, and freezing like that, or are there certain ingredients ( eg yoghurt) that would be better added after freezing? Obviously it would be easiest to have everything combined and ready to go! Thanks! Liz
Hey, I am must wondering, to do this in the slow cooker do I still have to make the sauce in the pan or can I just chuck all the ingredients in the slow cooker for 8 hours which will slowly make the sauce.
Hi there, if you do this in the slow cooker would you need to decrease the amount of stock as the liquid can't evaporate or is it fine to leave the recipe as is? Also how long and on what setting would be best for the slow cooker?
Thanks heaps :)
Hi! I plan to cook this in a slow cooker. Do i just throw all the ingredients in or should i also do any of the other steps mentioned above when cooking in an oven? Thanks for this recipe! :)
Thanks for this. My wife and I love to cook together, and this blew us away tonight. We used Thai coconut cream instead of the yoghurt, added a little Garam Masala, and used a tagine instead of a crock pot, for 3.5 hours. I didn't know lamb could be easily cut with a spoon before tonight, and I may have to propose to my wife again...
Hi Chelsea,
I have some venison in the freezer that needs using up. Would it work with this meal.i would have to cut it up in to cubes and I'm wanting to do it in the slow cooker. Thanks
HI Chelsea, this sounds delicious and i want to make something similar for a MKR cooking competition that we are having at my work. We draw countries out of a hat and all have to cook for 16 people, 16 lamb shanks would probably be pricey, but is there a way i could use this same recipe but make it go further?
Hey Chels, this sounds fantastic i just wondered if i could pair it with the traditional mash potato or if it would make the meal too heavy? Partner is not a huge fan of couscous - even though i LOVE it ;) - just trying to think of what i could substitute it with,
Thanks Lovely lady keeping doing what your doing your amazing!!
