Method

Braised Lamb

  1. Marinate the lamb shank with red wine, herbs, salt, and pepper overnight.

  2. Heat a pan over high heat and sear the lamb shank until browned on all sides.

  3. In a saucepan over medium heat, add olive oil and the mirepoix (carrots, celery, and onions). Sauté until golden brown, then add tomato paste and cook until caramelised.

  4. Pour in the red wine marinade and stock, bring to a boil, then transfer the seared lamb shank into the saucepan. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 3 to 4 hours, or until the meat is tender.

  5. Remove the lamb shank, strain the sauce, then add cream, mustard, salt, and pepper. Whisk until well combined.

Mashed Potatoes

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and garlic, then simmer over medium heat for about 15 minutes or until tender.

  2. In a small saucepan, warm the milk and butter over low heat until the butter melts.

  3. Drain the potatoes, return them to the pot, and mash while slowly adding the warm milk mixture until smooth and creamy.

  4. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
