Those who love lamb should be enjoying this. The Braised Lamb Shank comes impressively good where Chef had take a long way to cook the dish. The lamb had been marinated with salt and being slow cooked via sous-vies at 79 degrees for 11 hours. Added with the wine reduction and using the Spanish capsicum to cook them for a sweeter taste. And not just that, you are assured with the juicy texture of the dish.
