- 2 carrots, peeled & chopped
- 3 celery sticks, chopped
- 3 tsp garlic, crushed
- 1 tbsp sumac
- Pinch salt & pepper
- 2 tins chopped tomatoes
- 1 bottle passata
- 250mL chicken or veggie stock
- 5 sprigs rosemary
- 4 lamb shanks
Method
- Heat a heavy oven-safe pot over medium heat and add olive oil.
- Add onions, carrots, celery, garlic, sumac, salt and pepper and sauté for 10 mins. Add tomatoes, passata and stock and stir to combine.
- Add rosemary and shanks; make sure they’re covered in sauce. Cover and place in the oven for 3½ hrs.
