Make Braised Lamb Shanks
I am not a Lamb cook so, no, I have not tried this recipe. But I try to share all types of recipes with you other cooks and readers out there. This is an old recipe I found in my late mother’s estate. I have no idea why she had it because no one in our family ate lamb. However, there is was on an old yellowed piece of paper. So for those of you who do enjoy lamb, here is a recipe for you: Old Fashion Braised Lamb Shanks.
BRAISED LAMB SHANKS
3 to 4 lamb shanks, bones cracked
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 tbsp olive oil
1 clove garlic, mashed, not minced
2 tbsp brandy
1 cup chicken broth
1/4 tsp basil
1/4 tsp oregano
Garnish:
1 cup cooked pearl onions, browned
1 cup tiny mushrooms, browned
minced fresh parsley

A Classic Eggplant Parmigiana
Classic eggplant dish features eggplant and vine-ripened tomato slices topped with a tomato and dry white wine sauce featuring dried herbs, onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and garlic. The sauce, seasoned with dried basil, dried oregano, and fresh parsley goes amazingly well with the baked eggplant. Topped with mozzarella cheese, the dish is returned to the oven, and the cheese is melted golden brown.
Cook’s Notes:
Eggplant is available year round at supermarkets and specialty produce stores, with the peak season running from late summer to early fall.
