Lamb shanks

Lamb shanks make for beautiful presentation when properly plated. One way to ensure this is to buy lamb racks with the bones "frenched" or exposed. You can also do it yourself by scraping down the sides of the bones to remove the meat then wiping with a clean towel. The best way to plate them up is by nestling the shanks onto a bed of vegetables, mashed potatoes, polenta or other fluffy side dish, with the bone-side up and intertwined, if serving multiple. The meat should be cooked perfectly pink in the center.
