Servings: persons

6 sprigs of fresh rosemary
150g cold butter
15 fresh sage leaves
2 sprigs of fresh thyme, leaves picked
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 lamb shanks, preferably free-range or organic, crown- or French-trimmed
12 cloves of garlic, unpeeled
2 large carrots, peeled and finely sliced
1 onion, peeled and finely sliced
1 leek, washed, halved and finely sliced
olive oil
2 wineglasses of white wine

1
Preheat your oven to 180u00b0C/350u00b0F/gas 4. Pick the leaves off 2 sprigs of rosemary, whiz them with the butter, most of the sage and the thyme in a food processor and season with salt and pepper. Using a small knife, take one of the lamb shanks and cut between the meat and the bone from the base of the shank upwards. You want to create a hole big enough to put your finger in, making a sort of pocket. Do this to all the shanks and divide the flavored butter between them, pushing it into the pockets. This will give a wonderful flavor to the heart of the shanks.
2
Tear off four arm-length pieces of tinfoil and fold each in half to give you four A3-sized pieces of foil. Divide the garlic and veg between them, making a pile in the middle of each
3
square. Rub the lamb shanks with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, then put one on top of each pile of veg and a sprig of rosemary and a few sage leaves on top of that.
4
Carefully pull up the sides of the foil around the shank and pour a swig of wine into each.
5
Gather the foil around the bone, pinching it together tightly. Any excess foil can be torn or cut off with scissors. Repeat for all 4 shanks, then place the foil parcels on a baking tray with the bones facing up. Put in the preheated oven for 21/2 hours or until the meat is as tender as can be. Serve the parcels in the middle of the table so that your guests can open them up themselves.
