Rogan Josh Lamb Shanks
This lamb shank recipe was initially given to me as a family favourite from a workmate. I've prepared it in a slow cooker and made it as easy as possible to prepare. It has a fantastic flavour and the meat just falls off the bone. I have made this in the oven as well and it tasted just as good.
Ingredients
Serves: 4
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon plain flour
- 2 tablespoons cornflour

YOu can go the length and breadth of India and Pakistan and never find chicken stock or mushrooms in Roghan Josh. Yoghourt not cream is usually included in the spice/sauce. Not bad really. - 20 Jan 2013
