GARLIC LOVERS' GREEK LAMB SHANKS

Being part Greek, I adore the flavor of lamb shanks with mint and oregano, rather than rosemary. Being lazy, I prefer this recipe to the more time- and work-intensive leg of lamb. This is a fairly rich dish that's easier than it looks, and is perfectly suited to cooler weather and cooks who are watching their budgets (lamb shanks are much less expensive than legs of lamb, freeze well, and you can easily double or triple the recipe). We like this with a tangy green salad with a simple lemon, garlic, and olive oil dressing, crusty bread, red wine, and maybe a side of pasta with parmesan or mizithra (greek grating) cheese if we're really hungry. Opa!

Steps:

Trim most visible fat from shanks.
Cut slits 1/2" wide and deep all over shanks, as many as possible.
Stuff garlic cloves into slits, lengthening or deepening them as needed.
Drizzle or rub extra virgin olive oil over shanks, trying to get the oil into the slits with the garlic.
(Recipe may be made in advance to this point. Cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day) Put shanks in a broiler-safe pan (I use a low rack in a pyrex dish) and broil on both sides until meat sizzles and browns, about 6- 7 minutes per side.
Remove shanks from oven, and turn it down to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
Pour red wine over shanks, and distribute 1 T each mint and oregano over both sides of each shank.
Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
Cover pan with aluminum foil, return to oven, and bake for approximately 2 to 2 1/2 hours, basting every 40 minutes or so.
When done, you can pour drippings into small pan and boil until slightly thickened while lamb rests, to serve alongside.

Ingredients

2 lamb shanks
1 head garlic, cloves peeled,large ones halved
3/4 cup dry red wine (or so)
2 tablespoons dried oregano, to taste
2 tablespoons dried mint, to taste
extra virgin olive oil (for drizzling)
salt and pepper, to taste

In a large Dutch oven or other heavy, lidded pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Salt the shanks, then brown them well on all sides except the one with the bone; this helps the shanks hold together better. Preheat the oven to 325°F.
When the shanks are nicely browned, remove them to a bowl. Add the carrots, onion and celery and sauté until slightly browned, about 6 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic cloves and cook another minute, stirring often. If you are cooking lamb shanks, leave the vegetables in. If you are cooking deer or other wild game shanks, remove the vegetables.
Add the tomato paste, wine, thyme and oregano to the pot. Mix well, and once it thickens, add a cup of water and mix well. Add the venison shanks back in now, along with any juice that has accumulated in the bowl. Cover with more water by just a little, bring to a simmer and add salt to taste. Cover the pot and let this cook in the oven for 90 minutes.
At this point, lamb shanks will be done. Deer shanks will still need some time, but you can add back the vegetables now. Keep cooking until the meat wants to fall off the bone, anywhere from another 30 minutes to another 2 hours. It's wild game, so you never know...
