ONLY THE BEST LAMB SHANKS 
4 meaty Lamb Shanks
2 pouches of Lipton's Onion Soup Mix
4 or 5 large carrots, cut up into 2 inch chunks
3 large potatoes, peeled and cut up
1 cup water

Line a 9 by 12-inch baking pan with foil large enough to cover completely. Place shanks into pan, add the soup, the vegetables and water. Cover and cook on low heat for 2 hours at 250°F or until the meat is falling off the bone.

This is a very easy and tasty dish with gravy.

Delicious, I did make the following changes (by instinct :)) Add a little Olive Oil and a small amount of Greek seasoning. Use 2-3 cups of water. I has to cook this for 3 hours. The Broth in the pan is all of the "Gravy" that you need because it's great. The next time I make this I'll add a small can of petite sweet peas.

Hi William, I agree with the (other) Jerry Blackwell. Add some olive oil and a little Greek seasoning. Cook it Low and Long. However I do trim as much of the fat and the silver skin off the shanks as I can. I love lamb, I'm glad that more Americans Do Not because it is already very expensive. I make great lamb curry too!

Must put rosemary, lots of garlic and couple tablespoons balsamic vinegar or half cup red wine. Sliced onions and Lipton soup onion mix. Amazing! Cook very slow three hours.
