Fork tender lamb shanks in a fragrant sauce with a subtle amount of spices. If you like it spicier, triple the amount of turmeric, paprika, cumin, and ginger. Restaurant Marrakesh's best dish in Walt Disney World's Epcot. You can ask any Disney restaurant for a recipe, and the chef will give it to you.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
- Sprinkle lamb with salt and black pepper. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook lamb in olive oil until brown on all sides. Transfer to a rectangular baking pan with 2 to 3 inch high sides. Set aside.
- In the same skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, 3 tablespoons butter, onion, celery, carrots, bell pepper, and garlic. Brown vegetables in olive oil and butter, stirring occasionally. Stir in tomatoes including liquid, turmeric, paprika, cumin, ginger, saffron, salt, one lemon quarter, brown sugar, and water. Bring to a boil. Pour tomato mixture over browned lamb in baking pan.
- Wrap pan tightly with aluminum foil. Bake at 350F for 4 hours or until tender.
- Remove foil. Add zucchini, parsley, and cilantro and additional water if needed. Increase oven temperature to 400F degrees. Recover with aluminum foil. Bake for 45 minutes longer or until zucchini is tender.
- Remove lemon quarter and serve.
- OPTIONAL FINAL STEP: The final step that Restaurant Marrakesh performs before serving is removing the lamb and zucchini from the pan. Then, transfer leftover sauce and vegetables back to the skillet that was used to brown the lamb. Bring to a boil, and simmer the sauce until reduced a little on the stovetop. Then, strain the sauce, discard the vegetables, and serve sauce over the lamb and zucchini. I do not perform this final step because I like eating the onion, celery, carrot, and red bell pepper which have absorbed the flavorful spices.
- Restaurant Marrakesh serves their Roast Lamb Meshoui with a side of Roasted Eggplant Purée, but I like mine over jasmine rice. Note: Restaurant Marrakesh serves two different roast lamb dishes. This is NOT their Couscous with Lamb Shank.
