You can throw all of the ingredients in the pot in this no-fuss, super easy dish. Lamb shanks that are slowly simmered with garlic, onion, carrot, rosemary and wine. Allow about two and a half hours for the lamb to cook on top of the gas stove. Great served with short grain rice pulao / quinoa / mashed potatoes, as you need something to soak up the wonderful sauce.
