Equipment

  • 6L slow cooker

Ingredients
 

  • 4 lamb shanks
  • 1 Onion diced
  • 2 large carrots, cut in julienne strips – I use 2 cups frozen, cut & ready to use
  • 1 large handful of fresh green beans, tipped and cut
  • 2 cups diced sweet potato
  • 2 x 400g cans of diced/crushed tomatoes
  • 1 cup beef stock liquid
  • 1 tbsp Vegemite
  • 1 tbsp dried rosemary
  • 2 tbsp Gravy powder – I use Maggi Rich gravy powder
  • 1 x 410g can of baby potatoes, drained
  • 1 x 400g can of whole champignon mushrooms, drained

To Serve:

  • 1 large crusty baguette bread stick, sliced and buttered

Instructions
 

  • Add lamb shanks to the slow cooker and top with onion, carrots, beans and sweet potato
  • In a jug combine tomatoes, rosemary, vegemite, stock and gravy powder and pour over the shanks and vegetables already in the slow cooker
  • Cook on HIGH for 5hrs.
    Remove lamb shanks. Shred meat from the bones. Discard bones and return just the meat to the slow cooker. Stir gently to combine well.
  • At this point add the potatoes and mushrooms. You may halve the potatoes if you prefer, or leave them whole.
  • Cook on LOW for 2hrs
  • Serve with buttery slices of crusty baguette
