6 lamb shanks
water
¼ cup celery top (leaves and tender side stems)
3 sprigs parsley (I use Italian flat leaf)

1 garlic clove, peeled and halved
1 ½ teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
¾ cup flour, seasoned with salt and pepper
½ teaspoon dried tarragon

1
Preheat the oven to 375F Put the shanks in a large pot and add just enough water to cover the shanks.
2
Season with celery tops, parsley, thyme, bay leaf, garlic, salt and pepper.
3
Cover and simmer on the stovetop for 1 hour.
4
Remove the shanks from the broth; strain the broth and reserve.
5
Roll shanks in seasoned flour (dumping the flour, tarragon and savory into a large bag, shaking to meld then adding the shanks, one at a time works well).
6
Mix the wine and oil together and pour over meat.
7
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour or until crisply browned.
8
Turn occasionally and baste frequently with the wine/oil mixture.
