Moroccan Lamb Shanks
Yields4 Servings
Prep Time10 minsCook Time2 hrsTotal Time2 hrs 10 mins

2 Tbsp [Bodega] Moroccan rub
2 Tbsp Avocado oil
4 Lamb shanks
1 red capsicum, sliced into chunks
1 onion, quartered, skin on
3-4 cloves garlic, skin on
2 sprigs each of thyme, rosemary
3-4 spring onion tops, chopped in half
1 tomato, quartered
1 cup water
Salt to taste

  1. Preheat oven to 160°C / 320°F.
  2. Drizzle the Avocado Oil all over the shanks. Shake the Moroccan rub and gently massage to get an even covering. Set aside.
  3. In a large roasting dish with a tight fitting lid place the capsicum, onion, garlic, herbs, spring onion tops, tomatoes and water. Place the shanks on top and give everything a good drizzling of our Olive oil.
  4. Place into the oven and roast of r 1h and 45m. Remove lid and continue to cook for a further 30 minutes. Remove to rest. I like to spoon a little fat off the top of what is left in the pan, add a little water and reduce to pour over the lamb when serving. Delicious.
  5. Serve straight away with couscous salad!
