Steps:
- Make the lamb shanks: Allow lamb to come to room temperature. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously season lamb with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high. Working in batches, add lamb and cook until brown on all sides, about 12 minutes. Transfer lamb to a bowl.
- Add onions and spice blend to pot and cook until onions are soft and translucent, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and add cherry tomatoes, stock, cardamom, bay leaves, saffron, and cinnamon to pot. Return lamb to pot and bring mixture to a boil. Cover and transfer to oven. Cook, turning halfway through, until meat is tender and falling off the bone, about 3 hours.
- Just before serving, bring salted water to a boil in a medium saute pan. Add okra and cook until crisp-tender, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Remove lamb from pot and skim any fat. Return lamb to pot along with cooked okra. Gently stir to combine.
- Make the cilantro condiment: Combine cilantro, garlic, lemon zest, and oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon over lamb before serving.

Steps:
- Heat 4 tablespoons olive oil in a medium stockpot over medium heat. Add lamb, onions, and garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until meat is no longer pink and onions are softened, about 20 minutes. Add salt, pepper, turmeric, saffron water, whole dried Persian limes, and kidney beans; cook a few minutes more. Add the water. Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add chopped parsley, chives, coriander, and fenugreek. Cook, stirring frequently, until they are wilted, about 10 minutes. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil, and cook, stirring constantly, until the herbs are very fragrant, about 10 minutes more.
- Add sauteed herbs and lime powder to lamb mixture. Cover; simmer until meat and beans are tender, about 2 1/2 hours. Uncover stew, and cook until beans are very tender, and stew has thickened slightly. Adjust seasoning if necessary, and serve hot.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium flame. Season lamb, and brown it evenly on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove lamb from pan, and discard excess fat.
- Return pan to heat, and add cubed celery, cubed carrots, cubed onions and whole garlic cloves. Saute for one minute. Add lamb along with wine, sachet of herbs and veal stock. Bring to a simmer, and skim any foam or residue that comes to the surface.
- Cover, and place pot in oven for about 50 minutes to an hour, or until lamb is very tender. Remove lamb from sauce, and strain liquids back into saucepan, discarding vegetables and sachet.
- When meat is cool enough to handle, shred lamb into strips. Cover and let stand.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta until just short of al dente. Drain, and hold at room temperature.
- Meanwhile, to finish the dish, heat the 2 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy saucepan over medium setting. Add remaining celery, carrots, onion and chopped garlic. Saute for 2 to 3 minutes. Add tomatoes, parsley and reserved shredded lamb along with 3 cups of the strained lamb-braising liquid. Bring to a boil, and add cooked pasta. Bring to a simmer, and cook gently, stirring, for 2 minutes. Check seasonings.
- Serve immediately in a flat soup plate.

BRAISED LAMB STEW WITH CANNELLINI BEANS
Steps:
- 1. Pour enough vegetable oil into a skillet to cover the bottom completely and turn on the heat to medium high. 2. When the oil is hot, dredge the lamb pieces in the flour, one by one, and add gently to the pan. Brown the meat on all sides, then transfer the to a plate, adding more lamb pieces, until all the lamb has been browned. Pour off the grease but keep the fond that's on the bottom. 3. Preheat oven to 350°. 4. Choose a large, lidded pot (large enough to hold all the meat and the beans), and preferably one that can go from oven to rangetop. Into this large pot add the olive oil, sliced onions, and sage. Turn heat to medium and cook onions, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until it becomes a light brown (but not burned). 5. Add the meat, turning it 2-3 times and heat until the meat begins to sizzle, then add salt, some grindings of ground black pepper and the white wine. 6. Meanwhile, dissolve the tomato paste in the beef broth and set aside. Simmer at medium-high heat the onions and wine and when almost all of the wine has boiled off, add the beef broth mixture and the fond from the frying pan. Bring back to a simmer, then cover and place the pot in the oven for 1 1/2 hours, removing it every 30 minutes and stirring it. 7. Drain the beans and taste for seasoning (salt and pepper). You'll find these need more salt than you think. Pour the beans into the lamb stew pot and gently stir. Cover and bake another 15 minutes, until the mixture is warmed through. Remove any of the bones that have loosened completely and discard. 9. Pour the stew out onto (or into) a large heated platter or bowl and sprinkle top with the raw garlic and the chopped parsley.
